The flower is a pale pink, two-toned. It sets seed in long, flat pods, kind of like a pea pod. The seeds are medium brown, very round, a little smaller than a B-B. When the seeds pods are mature, they pop open, and each half forms a curl and turns brown. The flower is about 1/2". The seed pods are about 1 1/2" to 2" long. It is very drought tolerant. It was growing in full sun on my property. But on the neighbor's property I found it in deep shade.

Here's a closer pic of the flower and the seed pods.
