'Judy's Pride' is a White Burley-type tobacco variety that was historically used for manufacturing cigarettes and fine smoking mixtures.[1] The plants are short, erect, with leaves that are egg-shaped in outline, attached at the broad end, and have a slightly puckered surface. The flowers are pink. It is reportedly not resistant to black root-rot.
'Judy's Pride' is believed to have originated from a selection, rather than a cross, 'Kelley' being the parent variety.[1] Our seed originated from USDA accession number PI 552483 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.
