Small unknown pea flower..

About two inches high. If anybody can identify it I would really appreciate it. Cheers Rob

There are so many different varieties of pea flowers here in Australia I wouldn't even hazard a guess. I hope someone can identify it.

@craftymeg LOL Margaret - I didn't think of that! Not a good idea!!

[Rob Z]

Thanks anyway - I was interested to know if it was a native or weed. It was actually just growing on the roadside in our street. Have to get the books out. :)

Nice backlighting

[Phil Howcroft]

no idea what it is Rob , I like it though

[Shutterbug]

The app I have say it’s Yellow Medick. It also said it’s in the legume family which kind of fits what you said about pea flowers. Nice sunny capture.

[Taffy]

What a beauty -- perfect lighting

[Jane Pittenger]

Does look like a pea relative

[Rick]

Cool capture. No idea what this one is.

@shutterbug49 Hi Debbie - thanks so much for finding this. I checked some photos and info on line and it's definitely what it is. Naturalized in Australia - so not a native, which is what I suspected. But it is a cutie and doesn't seem to be very invasive. Thanks again Rob.

Just a quick thank you to Debbie @shutterbug49 and her clever plant identification app. Apparently this is a relative of lucerne, commonly called Yellow Medick, but with an official name of Medicago falcata. It's planted to improve fodder paddocks. Thanks for your interest, helpful comments and favs. Cheers Rob
