Flower is Bush Vetch - a particular favourite of Common Carder #bumblebees.

A legume - pea/clover family to you and me - Bush Vetch likes to have a bit of a scramble (up to a metre tall) whilst fixing nitrogen (so good for your #soil too!). Flowers spring to autumn.

Go do some #good.
Have the best week you can.
If you’re not having a good week - tell someone.
And if someone tells you -
Listen.
Really #listen.
