Sounds like hyacinth bean, Lablab purpureus (and the seed pods in your other pic are a match for that as well) http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/890/

I should also add next time if you'd like to keep your pictures together in one thread (which makes it easier for people trying to help you ID), you can only put in one picture per post, but you can reply to yourself as many times as necessary and include a new picture in each reply.
