About this variety
Herzegovina is a cultivar of Nicotiana tabacum, offered here as seed for growing the plant. Nicotiana tabacum is a tall, broad-leaved species of the nightshade family, usually grown as a warm-season annual from seed each year. The product card for this cultivar is short: it gives the name and the species, and nothing else about the plant. This page therefore sticks to what is known about the species and says plainly what is not recorded for Herzegovina itself.
Also known as: common tobacco, cultivated tobacco, tambaku (Hindi), tabaco (Spanish/Portuguese), tabac (French), Tabak (German), tütün (Turkish)
These are common names of the species. Herzegovina is the cultivar name used by the store, and no alternative cultivar names are documented.

Growing Herzegovina from seed
Nicotiana seed is dust-fine, and the species needs light to germinate. That sets the method more than any other detail.
- Sowing: press the seed onto the surface of moist, fine seed-starting mix and leave it uncovered. Buried seed is unlikely to come up.
- Watering: mist gently or water from below, because a heavy stream washes the seed into clumps.
- Warmth: the species germinates in warm conditions and is slow in cold soil, so sow indoors rather than into cold ground.
- Seedlings: thin them when the first true leaves have formed, and move them outdoors only after the last frost, in a sunny spot with space around each plant.
Exact temperature, days to germination and spacing have not been confirmed for this cultivar, so no figures are given. Plants of the species vary with light, soil and spacing, and seed-grown plants of a cultivar can differ from one another.
What is not yet recorded
No seed specifications have been saved for Herzegovina. This page therefore states no germination percentage, viability period or seed size. The origin of the cultivar, its exact height, its leaf shape and its flower colour are also missing from the card, so they are left out rather than guessed. The product has no accepted photographs yet, so nothing here describes how the plants look.
FAQ
How do I sow Herzegovina seeds?
Press them onto the surface of moist soil and do not cover them. The seed of Nicotiana tabacum needs light to germinate, and its small size means even a thin layer of soil can block it.
When should I sow Herzegovina?
The product card gives no sowing window for this cultivar. As a warm-season species, Nicotiana tabacum is normally started indoors ahead of the season and planted out after the last frost. Check your own last-frost date before choosing a sowing week.
How tall does Herzegovina grow?
The card does not record a height for this cultivar. The species is a tall plant with large leaves, but the final size depends on light, soil and spacing, so no figure is promised here.
