Wildflowers - Four O'Clock Seeds
Four O'Clock seeds are fun to grow, because they are easy to grow. The seeds are large enough that they are easy to handle for children or elderly people, and they quickly grow into a plant that gives a brilliant show of large blooms. Since they are an annual, they just need a steady supply of water, and should have very few other needs. They are called Four O'Clocks because each bloom just lasts for one day, opening in the late afternoon, and blooming until the heat of the next day - sort of like a Primrose or Morning Glory. Don't worry about the blooms dying though, there are always more blooms ready to take the place of those that have already bloomed.

This popular garden flower earned its name because of its habit of opening in late afternoon; this unique characteristic is caused by fluctuations in temperature and light. The genus name "Mirabilis" comes from the Latin word for "wonderful," while the species name "jalapa" refers to an often used name for locations in South and Central America. Founding father Thomas Jefferson grew these flowers in his extensive estate gardens at Monticello, referring to them as the "fragrant Marvel of Peru." Historians believe that the ancient Aztecs were the first to raise these flowers, which made their way to Europe by the early 18th century and were classified by Linnaeus in 1753.Starting at $2.50 USD -
