A flue cured tobacco; primarily used for cigarette and pipe blends.
Virginia Bright Leaf Nicotiana tabacum L[ Approximately 100 seeds per packet ] Bright leaf tobaccos became popular in the early 1800s as the demand for milder and more aromatic products arose. Farmers experimented with growing and curing methods for years, but the big breakthrough, like many great innovations, occurred by accident. Fires had long been used to cure tobacco, but it was in about 1839 that someone used charcoal to restart a curing fire. This created a high heat condition which resulted in a bright, yellow cured leaf. 'Virginia Bright Leaf' tobacco has a rather wide range of adaptability, does well in most locations,[1] and is suited to any type of soil, but performs best on lighter types.[2] 'Virginia Bright Leaf' tobacco is a flue-cured type that was historically used for cigarette and pipe blends. Our seed stock originated from the USDA's accession number PI 552385. Each packet contains approximately 100 seeds.
