Found this info - The plant has been cultivated as a cover crop and soil improver, This species has a symbiotic relationship with certain soil bacteria; these bacteria form nodules on the roots and fix atmospheric nitrogen. Some of this nitrogen is utilized by the growing plant but some can also be used by other plants growing nearby.

 

Good luck finding it, it is a real stunner. If you find seeds available somewhere let us know :  )
