Tobacco Plant

Tobacco plant, Urban vegetable gardens, via Goito, Livorno
I'm a total disaster when it comes to plant names, but during my visit at the Orti Urbani I was able to recognize this gorgeous tobacco plant, not very common around here.

    At one point in history, most of southern Virginia was covered with tobacco.

    There are a handful of places in this province that grow tobacco, but I've never seen the plant myself.

    My first time to see a tobacco plant. So big.
    Nice juxtaposition of two "highrises."

    I don't think I've ever seen one in Europe!

    I enjoy a very occasional cigar... love the aroma. Others don't. That's life, baby!

    A tobacco plant growing in a garden? Odd.
