Vicia americana
Pea or bean family. It has purple flowers in clusters of 2 to 9. The leaflike structures at the base of the compound leaves are sharply toothed. This is the only native vetch in Minnesota.
Spotted near the Chippewa Picnic site on Hwy 26. Found in a grassy and brushy habitat with exposure to sun.
