Hovea?

Went out to the farm today to tidy the garden and foundeverything is in full bloom.  The Native Frangipani is about 10 metres tall now and covered in fragrant blossom. Couldn't get a good Blip though.  I will have to make do with this unusual pea shaped flower.  Here you have a group of them on one stem, however each flower has only two cyclamen petals and a protruding stamen.  I have put a single flower in extras. I have tried to name it and feel it is close in structure to the Hovea family, but I can't find a match.  It is a fairly common native here in the south east of Australia.
