Four o'clock (Mirabilis jalapa) is a classic kampung-garden flower that loves Malaysian heat and copes with rain. Flowers open in the late afternoon in magenta, yellow, white, pink and striped mixes, often on the same plant. A good choice for beginners with a sunny yard, porch or large balcony pot.
- Soak the seeds for 8–12 hours.
- Sow 1–2 cm deep, two seeds per spot.
- Thin to one strong seedling per pot.
- Water when the top few centimetres are dry; feed lightly.
Safety: the seeds and roots are poisonous if eaten. Keep seeds away from children and pets, and do not grow it alongside vegetables.
