Trailing Fuzzy-Bean (Strophostyles helvola) At a dense mixed forest edge. Growing on silty topsoil that was brought in several months ago. There are bean-like pods on the vine as well. Really cool considering this is a wild relative of the common cultivated bean!<br />
Flowers (on the same vine) range from a &quot;creamsicle&quot; orange to a pink color! <br />
