Probably OK. It might, however, be Bossiaea buxifolia, the back of the standard of which is darker brown. The back of the standard of Bossiaea prostrata is pinkish red to pinkish brown.

Thanks Betty, not sure about that feature, I cant say I noticed I'm afraid. The leaf characteristics put it as B. prostrata though and it looked substantially different to the B. buxifolia.
