The 4 O’Clock plant (Mirabilis jalapa), known for its colorful and fragrant flowers, is a versatile and low-maintenance addition to any garden. The bicolour variety features striking blooms in two contrasting colors, often appearing in vibrant patterns like streaks or splits. These trumpet-shaped flowers open in the late afternoon and close by morning, releasing a sweet fragrance that attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies. The plant grows into a bushy shape, reaching 2–3 feet in height, with lush, dark green, oval-shaped leaves. It thrives as a perennial in warm climates and an annual in cooler areas.
