Sure looks like vetch to me too. MuseRider May 2021 #4
Around here that grows as a weed; it's all over. Purple vetch. eppur_se_muova May 2021 #5
I'm going to guess it's another bird poop transplant Siwsan May 2021 #6

It seems like every year I get a new surprise in this specific flower bed. I sometimes wonder if my late sister's spirit is planting things just to keep me on my gardening toes.

I am not all that familiar with it, did not know it would vine. It is a great plant to have to fix nitrogen. Often used as a cover crop. It sure is pretty.

I suspect that's how I've gotten a number of my mystery blooms.
