FOUR O'CLOCK (IVlarvel of Peru), Tall [tP-2 ft.] Treated 

 as an annual, this thrifty family produces plants suitable 

 for growing as a hedge or as a low screen along a fence. 

 The green of the leaves is relieved by a succession of brilliant 

 buds and salver-shaped flowers in a fine range of colors. The 

 flowers have an interesting habit — they open in the late 

 afternoon, remain expanded all night, and close again the 

 next morning in the heat of the sun. They bloom from mid- 

 summer to frost, and their roots may be stored over winter 

 and replanted the following spring.

 grown from seed which assures the only means of discover- 

 ing new varieties. Their abundant foliage is very handsome 

 and usually sweet scented. The phlox-like flowers in large, 

 rounded clusters are borne on sturdy stems. Reds pre- 

 donjinate, but soft tints of pink, rose, and white are fre- 

 quent. In a northern climate they should be taken indoors 

 before frost.
