Classified as an Oriental or Turkish type tobacco, 'Xanthi' was historically used for pipe tobacco and cigarette blending. The plants grow to about four feet tall when topped, six feet tall when allowed to flower. The leaves are thick and heavy, averaging eleven inches wide by twenty-three inches long.

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.
