Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Nicotiana quadrivalvis, Pursh. Herbaceous, annual, viscid- pubescent: st. erect, or branching: Lvs. 4—6 in. long, petiolate, oblong, the upper nearly sessile, entire, lanceolate, acute; margin often somewhat revolute: fls. few on short slender pedicels; calyx-teeth linear, corolla tubular, swollen below, tube about 1 in. long; limb 1½ in. diam.; lobes ovate, obtuse, dark purplish without, white within: caps. 4-celled, subglobose, nearly equaling the calyx.—Formerly cult, by the Indians and still grown by them to a slight extent; probably does not occur outside Indian cult, and gardens; possibly only a cult, mutant of N. Bigelovii, as it appeared in Setchcll's pedigree cultures of that species. Fresh Lvs. said to smell like a goat, but the odor disappears on drying. N. multivalvis, Lindl., known only from Indian cult, in Ore. and Wyo., differs in the many-celled indehiscent caps., and many-lobed corolla-limb.
