Mirabilis laevis, the desert wishbone-bush,[1] is a recently redefined species of flowering plant in the four o'clock family.

Distribution is in the Southwestern United States and northwest Mexico.

Mirabilis laevis now includes the common California chaparral plant known as wishbone bush (formerly Mirabilis californica), and several very similar relatives previously classified as separate species and now as varieties.
