i have four o'clock seeds to trade
Comments (5)Hi, Do you still have any seeds that you want to trade? I have some sunflower seeds that came from Burpees 'Mammoth.' I have yellow four o'clocks and need some other colors to grow with them. I have sent you an email....See MoreOT - cuttings of datura and Four O clocks
Comments (10)The reason your 4 o clock isn't blooming is it is waiting for that threshold photoperiod for flowering. ether it is not getting enough sun or you will need to wait for the plant to flower. (there's a good chance it will.) I have a Datura Metel that is barely a foot tall but it has had nearly 20 double blooms and currently has 12 big seed pods. The spot i put it in gives it half a day of sunlight (morning) and a little extra in the afternoon. that seems to be the critical photoperiod for mine. I also made sure to plant it in the rocks because when i was in california i noticed the only wild ones i could find thrived in rocky areas created by people. I would also keep in mind that the less you water it the more flowers it will make for survival. but don't starve it. :) it would be helpful iif anyone could clue me in on any cutting and rooting tips. thanks. :) the url will not work for my pictures. sorry....See MoreFour o'Clocks and Brugmansia

[on review.. i see the leaves rolling on the flowering one.. it might be water stressed also.. soak it soon] something looks weird on the affected on.. the seed pods dont look right .. but i cant say i ever saw one in that shape.. any chance there is a dog around??? the flowers open in late afternoon.. hence the name.. en mass.. they are very fragrant ... you might want to take a hand trowel.. around your garden.. and dig some 3 to 5 inch holes.. and FIND out how much moisture is down in the root zone of your plants.. and water appropriately ... ken...See More- 2 years ago
