four-o'clock
Late afternoon time
Four-o'clock is a flowering plant that blooms in late afternoon, typically around 4 PM, when its trumpet-shaped flowers open.
Native to the Americas, it produces fragrant blooms in various colors—often multiple colors on the same plant.
The name applies to both the plant and the time of day written with hyphens: We'll meet at four-o'clock.
