Maryland Mammoth
Nicotiana tabacum L
[ Approximately 100 seeds per packet ]
'Maryland Mammoth', as its name implies, is a Maryland-type tobacco. The plant's pink flowers aren't displayed until quite late in the season, which means that it produces more leaves than other varieties. However, this also means that there is often not time to produce mature seed pods before frost kills the plants.
Developed as a cross between 'Maryland Broadleaf' with 'Maryland Narrowleaf', our seed originated from USDA accession number PI 551337 which was donated to the tobacco collection in 1906. It was developed and released by D. E. Brown of the Maryland Agricultural Experiment Station. Our 'Maryland Mammoth' seed was grown for us in Tennessee by David Pendergrass.
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.
