Notes

'Jasmine Tobacco' flowering tobacco (Nicotiana alata 'Jasmine Tobacco') is an annual for borders, containers, and pollinator gardens. It is not cold-hardy and will not survive freezing temperatures. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil. The flowers are fragrant and draw butterflies, bees, and birds. It is also drought tolerant, so it needs little fuss once settled.

Pairs well with Hyacinth bean, Jowey Winnie dahlia, and Green Goddess calla lily.
