• Simple Planting: These strong, chunky guys are designed for simple success. Just press them directly into your soil, leaving a little bit sticking up, then water settle with rainwater.

• Light Requirements: Keep these in filtered light—aim for 30–40% sun and 60–70% shade.

• The Botany: Known scientifically as Mirabilis Jalapa, these plants are native to the tropical regions of South America, specifically the dry areas of the Andes in Peru.

• The Story: They earned their name “4-O’Clocks” because of their fascinating bloom habit: the fragrant, trumpet-shaped flowers typically open in the late afternoon (around 4:00 PM) as the heat of the day fades, remaining open throughout the night and closing again the following morning. This unique timing evolved to attract nocturnal pollinators like hawk moths with their sweet, evening perfume.

• Fragrance: Renowned for their enchanting, sweet fragrance, our Pink and Yellow varieties will add a wonderful, nostalgic scent to your evening garden.
