Description
Nicotiana sylvestris
Highly fragrant, long-blooming annual! Perfect for containers!
This tobacco relative is an easy-going annual that grows to 2’ tall with highly fragrant, intensely vibrant purple trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom in rampant profusion from early summer all the way to the first frost, wafting a divine scent that can be smelled from quite a ways away. They’re quite the sight when planted en masse in a garden bed, but they also grow great in containers.
Seeds grown by Giving Ground Farm in Pocatello, Idaho.
200 seeds.
Directions: Start indoors 6-8 weeks before frost, and transplant out after. Gently press seeds into soil. Light aids germination.
