10 to 15 seeds from the flowers pictured. I grew them last year and collected the seeds. Colors are assorted.

Four o’clock, which goes by several names, including Marvel of Peru and the botanical name Mirabilis jalapa, is a no-fail garden flower. Most gardeners treat the bushy plants as annuals, though they develop fleshy tubers in the south and come back year after year. They grow to a manageable 2 to 3 feet in height, and sport flowers in a fascinating variety of colors, including marbled bi-colors. The common name “four o’clock” came about because the flowers habitually open in the late afternoon, remaining open into the night. They are sweetly scented, and a favorite of hummingbirds.
