Happy Wanderer

A native Australian wildflower that flowers in our mid-winter. They grow wild in our
area, but we planted ours and it started off white, now its half this cyclamen pink
and half white. It will crawl along the ground and climb anything that's handy and
eventually form a reasonable sized bush, but they're short lived. Their seed is
collected by birds and sown with their droppings, so a bush can pop up anywhere
below where a bird has sat. Nectar eating birds are also attracted to the flowers.

a small but pretty flower! Looks like it might be related to our vetch, in the pea family.
