Product Description
Fragrant Blooms
Four O'Clock flowers are especially fragrant, and thus are effective at attracting a variety of pollinators.
Four O'Clock (Mirabilis Jalapa Red)
Four O'Clock plants are fast-growing bushy plants that are easy to grow from seed. They can grow up to 36 inches tall and feature ovular, lance-shaped leaves and trumpet-shaped flowers. These blooms will appear in a hue of vivid red, and they will prove to be wonderful additions to an evening garden. These flowers won't open until the late afternoon, hence the common name "Four O'Clock." However, on a cloudy day, you may see the flowers open all day long.
Mirabilis Jalapa puts forth blooms that are particularly fragrant: even a single bloom opening can produce a noticeable scent. To some, the scent is reminiscent of vanilla. These are small flowers that will reach only about 1 inch in diameter and 2 inches long. Four O'Clock is native to tropical regions of North and South America.
Fast-Growing Perennial
How to Grow
Mirabilis Jalapa seeds may be sown directly into the garden in the spring in warm areas. In cooler areas with a late spring, start the flower seeds indoors about eight weeks before the final frost date for transplanting outdoors at a later time.
Sow seeds at a depth of 1/4 inch, and keep moist until germination. Under proper conditions, germination will occur in 10-14 days.
Four O'Clocks may be set in the garden at about the same time you would plant tomatoes. Allow about 12 inches between the plants. Mirabilis roots are tuberous and can be divided in early spring.

Late Night Bloomers
These grew very well and came out beautiful. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see them very often. They didn’t open up at 4:00. It was more like 10pm. I would take the flashlight out to the garden at night so that I could see how beautiful they were. End of season they were loaded with seeds.
