KY 5
Nicotiana tabacum L
[ Approximately 100 seeds per packet ]


Also known as 'Kentucky 5', 'KY 5' is a Burley-type tobacco. It was grown historically to be used for plug tobacco, cigarette and pipe blending and cigar filler blending.

Our seed originated from USDA accession number PI 551278 donated in 1929 by the University of Kentucky. Our 'KY 5' seed 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.
