I've got one out my window growing in a barrel, it's a pretty mauve colour and grows like a mad thing

It must have come into my garden via something else, possibly from a seed, as I don't remember getting one. I've never known it to seed for me, but it is in a place where it doesn't get much of a chance, but I could probably get a bit of root off it, I will go look right now. I've just cleaned it up and thrown all the seed pods away, what a shame. I have just looked, and I'm sure I could easily get a piece of root. Edited to say, I have googled the one you want, but mine is not that light shade of mauve, mine is a deeper colour, more into a pink I suppose you would call it

I can't remember, have to wait till next year for a sniff now
You can see the colour in this photo above the piece of wood on the glass, and a bit below. If I train it up onto the rose on the trellis, it kind of climbs, it has huge long arms and legs, It is almost, but not quite, a nuisance
Have noted. Am bogged down with guests for a few days and am behind with all sorts of things. Have some seeds for you.

Hyacinth Bean Vine is a perennial with a dainty mauve purple sweet pea like flower. No perfume. I got mine from Kings Seeds. The pods are a lovely crimson colour & are edible. I have some seed of these. Mine is in flowers now but don't know how to put up a photo. In the kings seed catalogue shows more of the pods than the flowers.

What an interesting sight. I am out of town at present but will look downstairs in my gardening drawer when I get home. Otherwise I will save the seed later in the season.
