General info:
As one might infer from the name, Four O'Clocks bloom late in the day and the blooms and fragrance persist through the night until early the next morning. Though they are called Four O'Clocks, they bloom a good bit later than 4 p.m. - it's really more like 6 p.m. here. Rather than light bringing them into bloom every evening, they are actually responding to temperature change, and on cooler cloudy days they will open earlier and close later in the morning. Pollinated flowers will close earlier than non-pollinated flowers, explaining to some extent the success this plant has in dropping viable seed. Four O'Clocks sport trumpet-shaped flowers in vivid colors, as noted above, and grow to shrub size - about 3 feet or more with similar width. Bloom time is mid summer until frost. Each flower is followed by a hard black seed about the size of a peppercorn. The flowers are the perfect shape for hummingbirds, and also attract butterflies and bees. Four O'clocks are virtually insect and disease-free, and will tolerate pollution from autos and sub-standard soil conditions. As such they are a good choice for a seasonal hedge along a roadway or near a hot driveway or garage area.
