This tall, outstanding plant makes a bold statement! Its very large leaves and unusual flower clusters create a dramatic look in the garden. Lovely in a white garden or planted with equally tall or colorful flowers like delphiniums. The flowers are very fragrant from late afternoon into evening and eye-catching in the moonlight. Attracts pollinators, especially butterflies and hummingbirds!

- Kat C.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 starsMay 19, 2026Wow the neighbors!
This plant was so fun to grow. The flowers are stunning and the neighbors were all impressed and curious as to what it was. I live just a bit south of Denver. Unfortunately, it did not make it through the winter, but we had very little (if any) rain or snow this year. So, maybe that's why? Undeterred, I am trying again this year! I may grow them in pots (no Colorado pun intended) and bring them inside in the fall.

We absolutely love hearing that your Indian Peace Pipe Nicotiana Seeds created such stunning flowers that impressed all the neighbors! There's nothing quite like growing something so unique that it becomes a conversation starter. We're sorry to hear they didn't make it through your tough Denver winter with the lack of moisture this year - that definitely could have been a factor. We love your determination to try again and think your idea of growing them in pots and bringing them inside is brilliant! Thanks for sharing your impressive nicotiana success with us! Keep on growing 🌻️

Once you learn how to grow them, it’s pretty easy
- Michael H.Rated 5 out of 5 starsApr 10, 20255 Stars
These aren’t easy to grow unless you do it right. These really should be started indoors, thinned once the seedlings get two to three sets of true leaves, then transplanted whatever container you are going to use. Since the seeds are so tiny, they need to be started pretty much on top of the soil, but the challenge is keeping them from drying out. That can be solved by placing the seeds on top, lightly pressing them in, and then covering them with a thin layer of fine vermiculite to retain moisture and to keep the seeds from washing away when you moisten the top of the soil/germination tray. They also take 2-3 weeks to germinate, so patience and applying water BEFORE they dry out is key to successful germination.
