Nicotiana alata x sanderae
Crimson Bedder

Tall, glowing, and so much better than those stubby little flowering tobaccos, Nicotiana alata x sanderae ‘Crimson Bedder’ brings bright cherry-red color to the garden with old-fashioned elegance. Long-tubed, 2" star-shaped flowers appear in generous clusters, creating a vivid display for borders, cutting gardens, cottage plantings, and large containers.

Also known as Crimson Bedder flowering tobacco, this annual grows a lovely 3–4' tall, adding height, fragrance, and saturated color without feeling stiff. The red blooms look fantastic with lime green nicotiana, blue salvias, orange zinnias, cosmos, grasses, and silver foliage. It is also a fine pollinator plant, inviting butterflies and other garden visitors to enjoy the long season of bloom.

Plant Nicotiana alata x sanderae ‘Crimson Bedder’ in full sun to part shade with rich, well-drained soil and regular water. Deadhead or cut flowers to keep the display fresh. Bold, graceful, and beautifully useful, it is a standout in our Nicotiana collection.
