Flowering Tobacco Marshmallow




Product Description
Flowering Tobacco ‘Marshmallow’
Nicotiana mutabilis
These towering yet graceful plants have the most unique flowers borne along large, glowing green stems. Blooms in multiple shades adorn each plant. When blossoms open they are white, and as they age, they transform to rose-pink and finally light fuschia. With so much eye-catching dimension and a light, clear fragrance, ‘Marshmallow’ is a lovely addition to the garden. Hummingbirds love it, too!
