Woodland Tobacco (Nicotiana sylvestris)
There are several varieties of tobacco, but among all of them, wild tobacco stands out as a giant. The plant is growing rapidly. The erect stems can branch. They have large, long, oblong, light green leaves, while the flowers, grouped in tight panicles, are a beautiful pure white. As night falls, their scent intensifies and attracts moths.
MAINTENANCE AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
If you are planting tobacco for leaf harvest, remove the flowers. The leaves are picked when yellow or brown. If you want to collect seeds and leave food for pollinators, let the flowers bloom. You can also harvest the leaves, but there will be fewer of them.
