Dee,
Love your "Yellow River Bean".
I think you sent me seeds. I'll have to check. If not, I would love seeds.

Taylor,
NOW, I understand....lol
That was why I was so confused....duh!
I was looking up 'Cruel Vine' and kept seeing photos like in the link you sent me to, which is Araujia Sericifera. Very Pretty!
I 'thought' the photo at the start of this thread WAS a 'Cruel Vine'.
So, THANK YOU again, now that I know what I have. I have wanted this vine also.
I'll also find out what all Larry might have in the Centrosema.

Here is photo of the 'Texas Native' that is blooming now. You will almost always see them growing with 'Texas Native Sharp Pod Morning Glory' - and their colors are the exact same Pink. This year, I have noticed YELLOW as well. Since they are not where I see them everyday, I'm not sure if the color changes as the plant matures, or when first opens, or what. I'll need to watch them more. I'm not sure, but I 'think' these are Strophostyles ??? But not sure which one.
Leaves do not look like Strophostyles leiosperma, but flower is small as this one is.
Look at photo of Onalee's. Strophostyles umbellata:

Another Strophostyles helvula at this link with 'Pink' AND 'Yellow'

This is like a maze, which is why I want to study them.

So what is the difference between Strophostyles and Centrosema???
Also see these many times referred to as 'Fuzzy Bean Vine'.
