The Marvel of Peru Mirabilis jalapa pack of 10 roots

The unusual and immensely pretty Mirabilis jalapa opens its gorgeous flowers in mid afternoon on sunny days in the height of summer only to close them again at night, hence one of its common names 'The Four O'Clock Plant'. Incredibly, each plant produces its flowers in a mix of colours from deep magenta, to pure white, bicolours, and even bright yellow it's no wonder its called the 'Marvel of Peru'! Plant this beauty in beds and borders, and it will form a neat, bushy shrub that will grow to about 1m 3ft tall. Alternatively, plant them in deep pots, like carrots would grow you will see what we mean when you get them!
