This display is about four plants.

14 August 2006. Zone 5. Four o'clock plants. Mirabilis multiflora. This plant is easy to grow, just pop the seeds into the ground when it is warm. It flowers in late afternoon and blooms until the sun closes the flowers about 10 AM. It appears no bugs attack this plant at least in my area.
