how about florists and botanical gardens?

actually hort and other research gardens grow them for testing things; though would likely need to be in greenhouse up north or far south this time of year

on second thought, the places I was suggesting were for flowering tobacco which probably isn't the right species. maybe call a tobacco company and see if they have any in a greenhouse they'd share?

I've been trying everywhere I can think.... AERGC, Facebook, contacted every institution whee I know somebody.
It's just regular smoking tobacco.
Thanks
