Dillwynia sp ? Small shrub with 'bacon & egg' pea flower colour pattern. The foliage is furry/hairy. Seems to like rocky wel drained sites. Please update Pea listings as Dillwynia is omitted. These 2 photos (some distsnce apart) may be 2 different species ?

Suggestion to list ('woody' ) PEA shrubs under Both PEA family group (ID from flower structure) as well as under 'shrubs' when not flowering. Suggest that the socalled 'shrub' category needs looking at. Rather too broad and unwieldy a category ?? Can be subdivided further to make it more useful ? ?

The first plant could well be Dillwynia sericea. However, the photo is not good enough for me to see either if the flowers are paired or if the calyx has silky hairs. The second photo from farther away I cannot comment on.
