Tobacco 'Select Night Flight' Organic
Best premium seeds for reliable, aromatic garden cultivation.
This flowering tobacco sleeps during the day, and only the pale backs of the petals are seen. However, when early evening arrives, they raise their trumpets, lifting from tall, strong stems, and show off their ravishing hues of purple and red. The warm, humid night air of summer carries their sweet scents, from subtle to heady, about the garden. These Nicotiana x sanderae hybrids were first introduced in 1907 and are admired for their vivid colors and sweet fragrance. They grow best in humus-rich soils with consistent watering, benefiting from afternoon shade in hot climates. Regular feeding and deadheading promote continuous blooming and attract hummingbirds and hawk moths.
