Nicotiana, 'Bronze Queen'
(Nicotiana langsdorffii) Do you ever feel like you need more ease in this world? A moment to appreciate, remember, and live within delight? Many moments? Moments that extend from summer until frost? Moments that are there whether you notice or not, and do not need you to notice to thrive? We are happy to offer these to you and all the pollinators that adore it, in the form of pendulous glowing burgundy to plum purple blooms, and rosettes of large green leaves customary to the tobacco family. Deer don’t like it and you shouldn’t eat it either. Put it in a vase and love it with your eyes only. 2-4’ tall with profuse blooms. Deadhead and it will bloom until frost. Also, pulchritudinous. Look it up!
