Indigofera adesmiifolia? Really need some more details eg. leaves, whole plant etc.

Sorry only got one photo and only saw one. It was in woodland, no green around it, no leaves visible. The flowers were on a long brown stem, you can just see it in photo. The flower petals were quite large, like on a tiger orchid. Very soft pink. Multiple flowers and just the one stem. I wondered if its an orchid but I know nothing about them!! I try going back to the site. Thanks for input
