Nicotiana spp.
Tobacco, used as a sacred and medicinal herb, is an important part of Indian culture and folklore. This species, which came north from South America before 1500 AD, is now extremely rare. Can be used as an organic insecticide (with appropriate caution). Approx. 25 seeds/ packet.
Plant the tiny seeds in the spring, and cover with light sandy soil. Can be started indoors and transplanted. Plant 1 ft. apart.
An insect-pollinated annual, varieties will cross. Remove mature sedheads and crush capsules in a bag or on a tray. Use a fan or light breeze to remove chaff.
