Introduce a dreamy, stylish display to your beds and borders with tall, airy flower stems.

An elegant hybrid variety from the Netherlands, crossing N. langsdorffii with jasmine tobacco to produce stems smothered in beautiful white blooms. These half-hardy annuals grow with a neat, upright habit and release a delightful fragrance, blooming freely all summer long.

Details:

  • Botanical Name: Nicotiana x hybrida, a sophisticated hybrid variety belonging to the classic Nicotiana genus.
  • Pure White Colourway: Produces masses of delicate, nodding white flowers that bring a soft, clean, and modern look to your garden layouts.
  • Stately Upright Profile: Reaches a tall and graceful height of 90cm (3ft) with airy, lightweight stems that integrate beautifully without crowding surrounding plants.
  • Shade-Tolerant Variety: Performs at its best when positioned in dappled shade or partial shade, making it a reliable choice for softening darker garden corners or woodland margins.
  • Enchanting Fragrance: Carries the sweet, rich scent of jasmine tobacco, providing a wonderful sensory experience near seating areas or garden paths as daylight fades.
  • Wildlife Support: Highly attractive to native pollinators and beneficial insects, helping to create a buzzing, healthy outdoor ecosystem throughout the summer.
  • Suitable for Cutting: Features long, clean stems that make it an excellent choice for cutting, allowing you to bring a touch of elegant fragrance into the home.

Care Instructions:

  • Sow seeds indoors in early spring on the surface of fine, free-draining seed compost; do not cover the seeds as they require light to germinate.
  • Keep the compost moist but not waterlogged, and protect young seedlings from frost before gradually acclimatising them to outdoor conditions.
  • Plant out into well-drained soil once all risk of frost has passed, watering regularly during dry summer spells to maintain steady growth.
