Large Vining Beans

Howdy, FOLKS;
Remember this post I made in Dec.'06:

Hi, Folks;
I've not yet learned to do photos so maybe I can be descriptive enough that someone will recognize my mystery plant. The plant is a vining bean, the vines may reach 12'+ if on something to support (trellis). The flowers are blue, shaped like almost any legume flower except quite large. The pod resembles the old heirloom english pea except for size, they are approximately twelve (12) inches in length and four (4) inches in circumference, containing 10 to 13 seeds (individual beans). The seeds are purple/dark lavender when mature & dry. I plant them as an ornamental on a tepee made with bamboo canes about 10' tall. If anyone has a clue from the foregoing verbal description, please let me know; common name or botanical, I'll do the research to chase down verification. As soon as I learn how to post pics I'll do that if name not found before.
Thanks always.............. hank

Some of you graciously tried to help me with this ID, but I didn't give you enough evidence to work with. But now I think maybe I've learned to use the camera some what so check the following images to see if you can identify this plant. I put a couple of scales in the picture to give better size perspective.. Thanks, Hank

P.S. After looking at the preview I note a couple of things to add; the color difference between the photos is the result of me playing with the 'brightness' and 'contrast' in my software. And I'm surprised by the size, I thought that I picked the correct label at photobucked. Hank

Howdy ALL;
Yep, I'm back with some more pictures of my beans.. Still trying to get an ID on them... May I ask you to refer to the earlier pics and pay close attention to the size of these beans (note the rulers/scales that I included in those pictures); also, note these words, 'the individual beans look almost exactly like Kidney Beans except they are 3+ times the size of a regular Kidney Bean..
The first picture is of the TEEPEE as it looks on 16JUL07..

The second and subsequent pictures are of the flowers as they are just beginning to blossom..

I'm disappointed with my camera or my operation of it because the flowers are difficult to see partly because (to me) they seem to be just a bit out-of-focus.. The colour seems true though, they're pale pink, last year they were more blue but I think that colour shift is due to lack of nutrients.. I've been a bit lax about tending to them and they needed some food and TLC Embarassed

which I gave them on the same day that I did the most recent photographs..
