'Bonanza' is a flue-cured type of tobacco historically used for cigarette and pipe blends. A post-1880 introduction, it was very popular with manufacturers. It was bred as a stabilized cross between 'White Burley' and 'Yellow Orinoco' and said to possess the qualities of both parents. These traits include hardiness tougher than the 'White Burley' and more porous than 'Yellow Orinoco'. Our seed stock originated from USDA accession number PI 552300.

Tobacco plants are very interesting, ornamental, and have uses apart from consumption. This section of the website is intended for the historical and informational purposes of thinking adults. Anyone who has been raised since the turn of the 20th century already knows that tobacco can be addictive and can contribute to various medical ailments. If you do not smoke, it would seem illogical to start. We in no way encourage people to use any form of tobacco product.
