Description More Information
 

Nicotiana rustica (Midewiwan Sacred Tobacco) has large leaves and bright yellow flowers to add character to any garden area.

This species contains up to 3 times more nicotine than other common species and the high concentration of nicotine in its leaves makes it useful for creating organic pesticides!

It originated in Mexico but was widely cultivated throughout the Americas by native peoples for ceremonial purposes.  Mapacho is considered very sacred by Amazonian shamans and is employed alone or in combination with other plants in shamanic practices. Some shamans drink the juice of tobacco leaves alone as a source of visions. Mapacho is used extensively in healing practices and is considered a medicine, not a health hazard, when used properly.

The Tukanoan peoples of the Vaupés often rub a decoction of the leaves briskly over sprains and bruises. Amongst the Witotos and Boras, fresh leaves are crushed and poulticed over boils and infected wounds. Tikuna men mix the crushed leaves with the oil from palms to rub into the hair to prevent balding. The Jivaros take tobacco juice therapeutically for indisposition, chills and snake bites. In many tribes tobacco snuff may be employed medicinally for a variety of ills, particularly to treat pulmonary ailments.

Other names: Wild Tobacco, Mapacho

seeds ordered and received April 29, 2012
Reviewer: DeAnna from WA United States  
I was thrilled to find your site. Splendid selection and information. My order was easily placed and quickly received. Packaging is wonderful. I ordered many different items and am not a seasoned gardener. I love to have my hands in the soil, feel the worms, and watch my labors grow. I was not successful at finding any way to print the planting, sowing, and saving instructions. I will need to go into the computer for each and every product. Keep up the good work, we know it can benefit all. Warm Regards, DKW in Washington State :) I will let you know of my success, at the end of the season. Too laborous to rate all items purchased.
