Can someone tell me what this BEAUTIFUL flower is?!


Here is a semi-blurry pic, of an unopened flower and one of the leaves to try to help with identification. I was surprised to see this intricate of a flower growing on a vining type of plant growing across the ground instead of some huge bush.
-------------------- One day Alice came to a fork in the road and saw a Cheshire cat in a tree. 'Which road do I take?' she asked. 'Where do you want to go?' was his response. 'I don't know', Alice answered. 'Then', said the cat, 'it doesn't matter.'

That's some type of passiflora, not sure which one...but I really like the purple.

That's what I was thinking, too. But I found this out deep in the woods in the SE USA... They don't grow wild around here, do they???

That's Scotch Broom, a weed of national significance. I cut them down when I'm out and about.>>>>http://www.weeds.org.au/cgi-bin/weedident.cgi?tpl=plant.tpl&card=S09

Thanks for the IDs guys! I can't say it enough how blown away I was when I stumbled across this flower! I just couldn't believe my eyes! No idea it grew around here!
I did some more research going off what you guys mentioned, now I think it may be a P. incarnata, the flower looks to be a better match color wise, and is actually native to my location (which amazes me).

Anybody wanna guess what kind of flower we have here?

I know a lot of you like exercising their identification muscles every now and then.
Just to narrow it down a bit, it's not a wildflower - it's actually something I am growing in the garden.
