Harvested from the gardens at Monticello.
In July of 1767 Thomas Jefferson observed the blooms of his Four O'Clocks: "Mirabilis just opened, very clever." In 1811 he noted planting seed sent by André Thouin of the Parisian Jardin des Plantes in an oval flower bed at Monticello.

The Four O'Clock, or Marvel of Peru, has long been cherished for the simple miracle of its flowers, which only open during low light periods such as in the late afternoon and on cloudy days. The plants bloom in a range of flower colors: red, purple, white, and yellow. Jefferson-documented: This plant was documented by Thomas Jefferson in his Garden Book, Notes on the State of Virginia, or other writings.

Sow seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost date at 80 degrees F. Transplant to 3" pots once they have several true leaves, then harden off and transplant outdoors after last frost. In cooler regions, can be treated as a warm-weather annual, or the tubers may be dug in the fall to preserve over the winter.

Approximately 12-15 seeds per packet.

This sheepskin rug is amazing! One of my favorite purchases!
Color: Cream Brown, Size: Round 48''
I loved the first one so much I came back and bought a larger one. The texture and the thickness are pure luxury. Well worth the money and there is no smell.

Very thick
Color: Ivory White, Size: Round 48'', Color: Ivory White, Size: Round 48''
I was pleasantly surprised that it was as thick and fluffy as it was for the price. I have another that I got that says it’s high pile and isn’t as nice as this one that says medium pile. Excellent for the price!

Not as pictured
Color: Ivory White, Size: Round 48''
The rug isn’t as pretty in person… choppy looking and noticeable. Different fur lengths and not cozy soft. I have other lamb skin rugs but this one doesn’t measure up. Sent it back…

Great valur
Size: 2' x 3' (Natural), Color: Gray Tipped
Soft and comfortable. Quality leather nsckrd. Genuine sheepskin. No off odors. I'm skinny and not on tailbone. Hoping this helps. The grey tipped is more of a bluish gray. Pretty but not s true gray.

On the fence? This is the sheepskin to get!
Size: 2' x 3' (Natural), Color: Wolf Tipped
I've been reading all the reviews for sheepskins on AMZ and felt this company was the one to go for and WOW did they deliver! The sheepskin came well wrapped but not vacuum packed and is even prettier in person than the pictures. It is super soft, fluffy and dense and mine measured 26" x 40". I absolutely love the wolf tipped colors: ivory, dark grey and a slight brownish hue. There is a slight odor but I don't find it offensive. It stayed put on my leather couch and sitting on it during a Netflix movie was heavenly warm and comfortable. I did not observe any shedding. Will definitely buy another wolf tipped one, once it becomes available as it is worth the money.
