Erm... what is this plant ?

Hi all you fellow green fingered friends.

I have a plant in my garden that I can not remember what is.

No I do not currently have a photo of it as this is a spare of the minute thing, I know silly me... But I can tell you a bit about it.

It has long single point leaves, there are six leaves per group. It currently does not have any flowers, but it does have a large number of what I would say are sweet pea pods. Though I would of thought this really is the wrong time of year for sweet peas to have seed pods. There are also no tendrils going from the plant.

So any ideas?

(I will post a photo at some point, but for now I was wondering if anyone had an guesses)

 

Google Lupin and see if that looks familiar.

 

No .. I have got lupins in my garden already and they look completely different. The outside of the seed pods (like small green beans) are smooth, to me they look like sweet pea seed pods

 

could be a Blue Indigo Baptisia

 

Not sure the leaf distribution is correct .... Mine has 6 leaves per stalk, 3 per side

 

sorry for not being any help :D i tried :D

 

Vicia? Only a hundred plus species of Vicia (includes peas, broad beans etc), but probably a good starting point.

 

You did help, you helped me look in a different direction
