climbing purple peas..

...weaving through tree stumps and keeping company with a plethora of pea flowers blooming in the bush.
Typically with five bright coloured petals, the upper standard, two side wings and a keel of two fused petals these Fabulous Faboideae are clever clogs in the pollination game.
A heavy old nectar loving  bee lands on a wing petal and the keel opens to reveal the stigma and ten stamens to the underside of the insect.
Hey presto, collection and transference of pollen.
