Cochliasanthus

(重定向自Phaseolus caracalla)
Corkscrew vine seedpods
Wavy, purple-streaked white petals surrounded by immature, spiral-shaped buds of the same color.
Vigna speciosa, a species which is often confused with C. caracalla.

Cochliasanthus caracalla is a leguminous vine from the family Fabaceae, originating in tropical South America and Central America. The species is named caracalla, a corruption of the Portuguese caracol, meaning snail. This perennial vine (when grown in a climate without frost) has fragrant flowers said to be reminiscent of hyacinths - with a distinctive curled shape, giving rise to the common names corkscrew vine, snail vine, snail creeper, snailflower or snail bean. It is the only member of the genus Cochliasanthus and was formerly considered to belong to the genus Vigna.
