I found it in front of a store.
An imported species from some irresponsible cultivators.
There are many drought tolerant native Senna in Texas, why do we need a Senna from Australia?
You know soon this species would spread everywhere.

I found these milkvetch at the same place of this one: https://www.wildflower.org/gallery/result.php?id_image=80840
There were three large clusters
"Waterfalls' Milkvetch: Mostly limestone substrates, arid hills and mountains, occasionally in somewhat mesic sites. El Paso, Hudspeth, Culbertson, Jeff Davis, and Presidio cos. Mar-May 3900-5300 ft.
In Texas, also records in Crockett and Reagan cos. Closely adjacent NM.
Flowers large, purple."~Flowering Plants of Trans-Pecos Texas and Adjacent Areas

Growing on a well decayed Quercus agrifolia log.
Thanks to Evelyn Chea for showing me the location - it's the same log from https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/195513390

I found one plant is pubescent at the same limestone foothill...both foliage and stems.
But it hasn't bloomed yet.

With lake level at about 14 ft. below normal pool elevation these organisms proliferate over an area of at least several hundred sq. ft. at this locality on a slowly drying mud flat.

Late in the evening, I settled into the campground at the Chaparral WMA, just across the Dimmit Co. line in western La Salle County. The camping area had a great variety of plants, some of which were new to me including this neat verbena. Clover's Vervain is like Texas Vervain on steroids--the general shape and structure are the same but the flowers are nearly 3/4" across, probably 3X the size of Texas Vervain. Very attractive. It is primarily a flower of the interior South Texas brush with a few scattered records further north:
