Vicia mulleriana

Vicia mulleriana is a rare perennial vetch native to northeastern Mexico that grows well in partial shade with consistently moist, well-drained soil. It is a climbing or scrambling plant that benefits from a trellis or nearby shrubs for support, and its pea-like flowers attract bees and butterflies. As a legume, it also fixes nitrogen in the soil, making it a beneficial addition to native or wildlife gardens.
