Half-hardy Annual, large purple flowers. The young seed is used as a pickle .. 
In France called BrlledeNuit , “ Beautyof Night.” It has also received in America 
the name of “Four o’clock,” from its habit of opening its blooms fully 
about that time in the afternoon ; it continues open all night, closing in the 
early forenoon. For beauty of foliage and flower combined, this handsome 
plant has few compeers ; it is half-hardy and tuberous-rooted, and if the 
tubers be carefully preserved during the winter, the plants increase in both 
foliage and floral development ; well-grown specimens form a striking feature 
in a Sub-tropical Garden, as the plants delight in sunshine. They may be 
grown as pot plants for the Conservatory or Greenhouse, and make their mark 
wherever they may be placed ; their colours are vivid and of great variety.
