Chorizema

Chorizema is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family Fabaceae. They are small, evergreen shrubs and climbers native to scrub habitats in Australia, valued in cultivation for their pea-like flowers. Most species do not tolerate frost, and in temperate regions require the protection of glass.[2]
