  • Information
  • Mirabilis jalapa. Also known as the Marvel of Peru, this old-fashioned annual is so named because its flowers don't open until about 4:00 PM unless it is cloudy, in which case they could bloom earlier. Because they are easy and fast to grow, it is best to sow them directly in the garden after the last spring frost date. They will likely flower from mid-summer through the first fall frost and may self-sow in milder climates for surprise blooms the following year. Annual. Summer-flowering. Height: 24" to 30".

    Average seed life: 2 to 3 years.
