Selecting the Right Location
Jasmine Scented Nicotiana thrives in full sun to partial shade. Choose a location in your garden that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. Ensure that the soil is well-draining and fertile. Nicotiana prefers moist, loamy soil but can tolerate a wide range of soil types.
Planting Jasmine Scented Nicotiana
Plant Jasmine Scented Nicotiana starts when the soil temperature is around 50°F. Plant them at the same depth as they were in their containers. Water thoroughly after planting to help the roots establish in the soil.
Watering and Care
Nicotiana plants require regular watering to keep the soil evenly moist, especially during dry periods. Water at the base of the plant to avoid wetting the foliage, which can lead to disease. Apply a layer of mulch around Nicotiana plants to help retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. Organic mulches such as shredded bark or straw work well for this purpose.
Fertilizing
Nicotiana is not a heavy feeder but can benefit from occasional fertilization to promote healthy growth and abundant flowering. Apply a balanced fertilizer once a month during the growing season, following the manufacturer's recommendations.
Pest and Disease Management
Nicotiana is relatively pest-resistant but may occasionally attract aphids, whiteflies, or tobacco hornworms. Monitor your plants regularly for signs of pests and treat them promptly if necessary. Insecticidal soap or neem oil sprays can help control infestations. Watch out for fungal diseases such as powdery mildew or tobacco mosaic virus, especially in humid conditions. Provide good air circulation around the plants and avoid overhead watering to reduce the risk of disease.
Harvesting Jasmine Scented Nicotiana
Jasmine Scented Nicotiana flowers can be harvested for their fragrance and used in floral arrangements or potpourri. Harvest the flowers in the early morning when the fragrance is most intense. To extend the flowering season, deadhead spent blooms regularly to encourage new growth and flowering.
Overwintering
Jasmine Scented Nicotiana is typically grown as an annual and does not survive freezing temperatures. However, you can collect seeds from mature plants in the fall and store them indoors over the winter for planting in the spring.
Growing Jasmine Scented Nicotiana is a delightful experience that rewards gardeners with its exquisite fragrance and elegant blooms. By following the tips and guidelines outlined in this guide, you can successfully cultivate Nicotiana in your garden and enjoy its beauty throughout the growing season.

Planting & Care
Planting & Care
Soil & Water: The plant likes full sun, and moderate water, and prefers to grow in well-fertilized soil (chicken manure).A side dressing of compost or more manure will boost yield.
Planting & Growing: Plant starts directly when the soil reaches 60F.
Harvesting & Storage: Harvest leaves at 2-week intervals or cut and hang to dry. Care needs to be taken in drying as too rapidly compromises aroma and flavor, while too slowly may develop mold.

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.

from 9231 reviewsThe cute packaging caught my eye first. I love you can open it up sprinkle in the seeds you need to use, and then close it up for another time. It is compact and cute. I am eager to harvest my greens.
One of my favorites to grow…always get a good yield out of this one and the flavor is just…YUM!
I received these in August and they have braved the heat of the past 2 months. I have continued to water them to ensure they live. One tree looks much better than the other, although I see buds ready for next year on both. I can't wait for spring to see blooms, leaves and branches to begin.
huge bulbs made up of huge cloves; perfect quality for planting - very firm and paper in tact.
My order was prompt and just what I expected.
I purchased Elephant and Music garlic bulbs to plant in my zone 7 garden. They arrived as firm, healthy bulbs.
Heads were big with many large cloves. I am anticipating a great outcome in early summer 🧄
Our chickens love this forage.I was a little concerned growing this in south Florida however it is flourishing. Our new go to, thanks Peaceful Valley!
What a deal - top quality and only $20.99. Happy Frog is a premium brand.
I prepped my raised beds with Happy Frog Potting Soil. I love that it contains earthworms castings. Premium product!
Firm bulbs, excellent quality. I eagerly await the saffron harvest next Spring.
Lovely large bulbs, wonderful quality!
I planted a row of red chesnok. The color is stunning, excellent quality.
I just planted two rows of CA late white. Garlic bulbs look beautiful - great quality. Can't wait for harvest and for braiding time!
I have been ordering shallots from Grow Organic for a couple of years now. I had some problems with the shallots, I have to say they have the best customer service. I am a Master Gardener and have ordered 100's of different veggies seeds for years at many different companies as I buy seeds for the Master Garden's and never have experience such great customer service. I believe anything you buy from them you will be happy
