I had to see why the name? and it is so obvious they flower after 4pm. Very pretty

The common name must be an American "thing". In Portugese it is Boa Noites - good night.

Four O'Clocks are good here, too, except that they are more like six or seven o'clocks, here!

They have light fragrance also. I have pink and yellow ones. They also seed so quickly.
