Partridge Peas (Chamaecrista fasciculata) with compound leaves and yellow flowers being subsumed by a tangle of Woolly Bean (Strophostyles helvola) vines.
Common Milkweed covered in seed pods, and a Woolly Bean vine climbing them
Got a garden bed that won't produce? This plot produced a few sad tomatoes and some culinary herbs last year, but I planted it over with annual nitrogen-fixing natives. Woolly Beans for me, Partridge Peas for the bees, and Milkweed (perennial) for all.
