Nicotiana ‘Hayefield Fine Wine’ (Flowering Tobacco) [20 Seeds]

$4.50

Germination Information: Surface-sow the tiny seeds indoors in late winter to mid spring and set in a warm, bright place for germination. Look for the first seedling(s) in about 10 days, with more appearing at irregular intervals after that. I don’t recommend direct-sowing because the seeds are so very small and could easily get covered up or washed away. Once you get the plants to flower, though, you may find self-sown seedlings next year.

Description

Last year, a scrawny little flowering tobacco (Nicotiana) seedling popped up in a part of the garden where I hadn’t grown any nicotiana before. The plant produced maybe three dark reddish purple flowers, and one of those set a few seeds, which I decided were worth collecting. This year, the resulting seedlings all bloomed in the same burgundy color, with a greenish exterior, on stems to about 2 feet tall. I think it’s worth preserving, so I’m calling it ‘Hayefield Fine Wine’. The flower’s “face” color is darkest in cooler weather and in a bit of shade; in hot weather and/or strong sun, the reddish aspect is more noticeable. Full sun to partial shade. Annual.

Collected in mid to late July 2023. At least 20 seeds. Shipping to US addresses only.
