My mother had a few in a sheltered spot against the house in Tennesse and they came back every year, but didn't spread. Here in KY z.6a, they die each winter unless the roots are taken up and wintered over somewhere safe. Ohhh, I love Four-o-Clocks.

Established plants grow from a tuber and can be difficult to eradicate. 4'o clocks are lovely, but need the right spot and need to be controlled. That being said, they bloom non-stop in my garden (evening hours) and are fragrant. The seeds sprout everywhere they can fall, even in cement cracks. Good luck getting rid of it! Probably some other unwary gardener planted it not knowing about its self seed tendency (like me). Fortunately it hasn't take over and i don't weed mine out. I planted some hardy guys with it like coneflowers and sedum and salvia. Good luck! Yes James, It is a prolific self sower and the seeds are black and a bit smaller than a pea.
