Nicotiana, Lavender Cloud & Fragrant Cloud Mix
(Nicotiana alata) This is a beautiful mix of purple Lavender Cloud and white Fragrant Cloud Nicotianas. Annual or short-lived perennial from Uruguay, Brazil and Argentina. Flowers do not emit fragrance until after nightfall, but when they do, they are perfumey-sweet, filling the evening air with rich fragrance! Blossoms can close during the day, even appearing finished, but will open again after the sun sets. Attracts night pollinators such as hawk moths. Flowers continuously until the frost. Up to 5 feet high.
Planting suggestions: Press tiny seeds onto surface of already-moistened soil. Keep pots in a water-filled tray in a sunny, warm location. Avoid surface watering until germination, except with a mister. After first set of true leaves have sized up, thin to one plant per pot and transplant out. Give plants rich soil, water, and full sun. Can container-grow in a 5-gallon bucket.
Contains at least 50 seeds
