A large climbing/sprawling Pink Flowered Lotus sp.? I haven't noticed before.

Lotus australis is a smaller forb, this large climber is an exotic. The flower arrangment does look freakishly similar, but the native lotus has leaf arranged in groups of 3-5, not the pinnate leaves shown here.

Thanks. Knew it didn't look quite right but couldn't quite pick what else it was.
