'White Mammoth' is a flue-cured type of tobacco that produces medium smooth, fine, bright leaf[1] historically used for pipe and cigarette tobacco blends. The plants reach forty-eight inches tall when topped, and up to seven feet when allowed to flower.
The leaves are broadest at the middle and narrower at the two equal ends, but with the length being over twice the width, and gradually tapering to a sharp point and forming concave sides along the tip.[2]
Our seed originated from USDA accession number PI 552336 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.
