This variety is often used as a base for cigars, but is also popular as a blend in pipe tobacco or cigarettes. It is a Havana-type and has long been adapted to our Northern European climate. The beautiful plants grow to a height of 180 cm and have medium-sized leaves.
A "blend" (mixture) of several varieties in varying concentrations is composed to obtain an interesting aroma.

Tobacco plants are diligent bloomers, in sun or shade, dry weather or rain!

Sowing method: February-April indoors at 20-25°C or in May outdoors (in a warm, shady spot). Always pre-sow in a seed tray. Sowing medium cocopeat with silver sand, sieve the top layer extra finely (kitchen sieve). Spread the seeds over the seedbed, lightly press them down, and mist them thoroughly: they are light germinators! Prick out in time into potting soil to prevent growth stagnation. The plants can be moved outdoors in May, as soon as the weather becomes consistently warmer.
