Anyone recognize this one? These are the only pic's I could get over a tall fence from my sisters backyard. Photo taken March 13, Zone 10 - Sebastian, Fl.

I'm thinking possibly Sesbania grandiflora or S. punicea?

Very nice images.
Looks like it could be the S. punicea:

Thanks greene! After looking on-line and reading about the two, I'm leaning towards S. punicea ... very invasive here in Florida as well as a few other states!
