I wish I could see more of the plant e.g. flowers, the whole plant etc…For now I’m guessing this is either the pink bush clover (Lespedeza thunbergii) or one of its cultivar? Link below is for L. thundergii ‘Gibraltar’, Check it out and see if you have a match. Best wishes! http://plantlust.com/plants/9007/lespedeza-thunbergii-gibraltar/
