Nicotiana is a garden mainstay for me. I grow several species and alternate each year so I can keep trying new ones while maintaining my favorites. In good years some winter over in sheltered areas and some others are re-seeders. Hummingbirds are all over them. On the downside, cutworms, flea beetles and Tobacco Hornworms are all over them, too.




You grow it in sun or shade? I don't understand why it wont grow for me......the fields here are full of regular tobacco that does great.
