'Delcrest' is classified as a "flue-cured" type tobacco and was historically used for cigarette blending. The plants grow to about forty inches tall when topped, or can reach six feet when allowed to develop its attractive pink flowers.
Its slightly puckered leaves are broadest at the middle and narrower at the two equal ends; typically twelve inches wide by twenty-nine inches long.
Our seed originated from USDA accession number PI 552306 and was sent to us by David Pendergrass from Tennessee. The USDA commented that the seeds were originally introduced from Canada in 1961.
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.
