When I first spied these little beauties along the seafront, especially as they appeared to glisten in the freshly fallen rain, I thought oh yes, wow! How lovely!
The small brightly pink flowers kind of jump out at you. The plant is called Common Restharrow (Ononis repens).

Yea, me! I took one look at these and thought, “Those certainly look like our butterfly pea — Centrosema virginianum.
Sure enough, when I looked them up, I found they are in the pea family, and they’re beautiful.

At first I thought they were a kind of vetch with those pea flowers.
