    This is at its finest right now in the Almonry Garden. It has been green all winter long and is now bursting with flower. It is a low grower and such a desirable front of border candidate:

      The flowers look like they're from the Sweet Pea family but have no idea what it could be sorry...
      Very pretty though:blue thumb:

        I agree with Lolimac, certainly looks as if it belongs to the sweet pea family.
        Is it possible that it is a wild sweet pea?

            Definitely Lathyrus vernus, possibly albo-caerulea.

                albo-roseus is much more pink than the one shown.
