Classified as a "Maryland" type tobacco, 'Dean' has been historically grown for cigarette blends. The plants grow to about forty inches tall when topped, or can reach six feet or more when allowed to develop its attractive pink flowers.
Its leaves are smooth with no surface puckering, broadest at the middle and narrower at the two equal ends, but with the length being over twice the width, tapering to a pointed apex with more or less straight sides. Typical leaves are twelve inches wide by twenty-six inches long.
Our seed originated from USDA accession number PI 552623 and was sent to us by David Pendergrass from Tennessee.
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.
