I'm sure i have some anecdotal information about this shot, but I'm at a loss at the moment. DESCRIPTION: A slender trailing or clasping vine with purple flattened pea flowers (3/4 - 1 1/2") with a small spur at the base, single or in small clusters. The flat part of the flower is pointing groundward unlike most of the pea-family. The leaves are alternate, divided into 3 leaflets ovate to lanceolate, each 1 - 2 1/2" long. FLOWERS: July to August HABITAT: Open, usually dry, woodlands and fields. Pine forest edges. OTHER INFORMATION: The fruit is a pod that spirals after splitting to maturity.
