Well, this just proves I don't know how to upload photos to Dreamwidth.
I'm now going to post this and see what I get.
Okay. With a modest amount of tweaking, the photos are available. We arrived too late to see this bloom. It has pea-like leaves and pea-like pods, but the pods are purple, and the seeds are teeny tiny brown beans (teeny tiny compared to the pod size). There are old stalks in the ground, showing that it was cut back to grow again, so it must be a perennial. There are better photos on facebook.
Edited 5:55 pm to add:
It is a Baptista Australis:

Good. *Next* year it gets a climbing cage.
