Nicotiana tabacum L
[ Approximately 100 seeds per packet ]
'Olor', pronounced "oh-lore," is the Spanish term for scent or smell, has large leaves, and is used for cigar filler and binder. It is commonly grown in the Dominican Republic.
It was donated into the USDA's collection in October of
1975 by the USDA, ARS Plant Industry Maryland Station and was noted as being found in Puerto Rico. Our seed originated
from USDA accession number PI 405647 and 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.
