Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

The Aparajita plant (Clitoria ternatea) is a perennial flowering climber native to South Asia and widely cultivated in tropical regions. It's known for its distinctive butterfly-shaped flowers in blue and white, which bloom abundantly during summer and monsoon. This hardy plant belongs to the pea family and is valued for both its ornamental beauty and medicinal properties. The Aparajita is particularly significant in Indian culture and is often used in religious ceremonies and traditional medicine.
Aparajita plants thrive in full sunlight and require at least 4-6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal flowering. As an outdoor plant, it's perfect for sunny spots in your garden, terrace, or balcony. You can train it to climb on trellises, fences, walls, or arches. The plant performs exceptionally well in Indian climate conditions during summer and monsoon seasons. Ensure proper support structure as the vines can grow several meters long.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, especially during the growing season. Water regularly, allowing the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings. The ideal soil mix for Aparajita is well-draining and rich in organic matter - a combination of garden soil (35%), cocopeat (30%), vermicompost (30%), and neem khali (5%). Apply a layer of organic mulch around the base to help retain moisture in the soil and suppress weed growth.
The Aparajita plant is considered pet-friendly and safe to have around cats and dogs. Beyond its ornamental value, this plant offers numerous benefits. The flowers are rich in antioxidants and are used in traditional skincare and hair care products. They're also used as a natural blue food colorant in various cuisines.
