crown vetch

This is the flower Securigera varia in the family of fabaceae:



I found this plant in mid June 2009 along I-57 somewhere between Cairo and Chicago.  This is not a native plant, however, it has been quite successful and can be found throughout the lower 48, Hawaii and the southern stretch of Canada from ocean to ocean.
