Tough to say which kind as the foliage is too mixed for my eye. Around the beginning of July on Cape perennial pea bloomed it's bright pink and white flowers, similar in shape to yours but more bold in color. As a disclaimer these are a very distant cousin to the pea's we eat and are usually not edible. The smaller clusters are crown vetch, another distant cousin of both the peas we eat and the peas they're growing next to. All beautiful flowers though...and the fish are too :D<br /><br />Justin Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01522672486097597470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7050365015235775568.post-48465174626894949602017-07-02T21:03:38.203-04:002017-07-02T21:03:38.203-04:00RM Lytle
