Can anyone identify this plant. It grows to about 1 mètre and is found planted in a wild insect friendly garden in Holland. It is growing on a West facing bank in half shade.

It looks like a pea family but without knowing more about how it grows I'm stumped.
Is it a shrub or a single stem plant?
Does it twine?
Is it on a cane?
Do the leaves belong to the flower?
Annual or perennial?

Sorry - no help!!
