DW on her walk saw a vine growing on up someones mailbox that see liked, so she took me by there and showed it to me. Grows like a morning glory vine, but is purple in color and blossoms are different. It has a seed pod which is also purple in color and about a inch and half to two inches long.
I have no pictures to show any idea's as to what it might be. :shrug:

My grandmother has two of them. She calls them a Hawaiian bean plant :shrug: But if you google Hawaiian bean plant, it's showing something totally different :confused:

Yes. I have those things growing on my "hitchin'post" in the back yard. Very easy to grow and the flower is delicately sweet smelling. Just pull the bean pods off and let them totally dry out. Then shell them and re-seed next year. Mine actually re-seed themselves, too. But I toss extras in the dirt for good measure.
