The 4 O’Clock plant (Mirabilis jalapa), also called “Marvel of Peru,” is a versatile and fragrant flowering plant. The rose variety features trumpet-shaped blooms in shades of soft to vibrant pink, adding a touch of elegance to gardens. These flowers open in the late afternoon and remain fragrant throughout the evening, closing by morning. The plant grows as a bushy perennial in warm climates and can reach a height of 2–3 feet, with lush, oval-shaped green leaves. This low-maintenance plant thrives in Pakistan’s climate, making it ideal for home gardens, borders, and containers.
