<p>Was also pleased to find out while chatting with the gardening gang on the Sustainable Haringey table at the Hidden River Festival that the tobacco plant is a "magnet for moths" - here's some more <a href="http://www.wildaboutgardens.org.uk/thingstodo/inaweekend/night-garden.aspx" target="_blank">info on a night scented garden</a></p>

It is gorgeous. Try smelling it at night - if it the same one I grew a few years back it smells fantastic.<br />
<br />
PS I once tried growing this from seed and it was a total failure, so well done Warham planters.

<p>I think we can safely conclude that somehow I have grown a tobacco plant although I have no idea where it has come from!</p>

Another vote for Nicotania, sticky leaves a giveaway. The variety I've grown before has quite a distinctive smell too (the leaves). They can grow quite big, look forward to seeing it!

<p>I think you might be right! No I haven't been to the Dordogne. I can't imagine how it got there, have just found another one growing down the side of the raised bed in my front garden. As long as its not poisonous or too invasive, I guess we can see how it progresses. It does fill a hole in the planter</p>
