Need more info on Glessnor seed.

[cowboyjames74]

So i got all the other info for my tobacco seed from the grin database, But grin has no info on the Glessnor seed.
I know it's a cigar filler, but thats all the info I have.
Would like to know, maturity, growth, Yield, flower color, Morphological descriptors and growth descriptors.
If I can get more info on it I can print up a Fact sheet like I did for my other cigar seed.

I grew some last year. I didn't record much data on it other than it had pink flowers and grew about 5 feet tall. Very nice elastic leaf. Makes a nice cigar wrapper.

Maybe Don can get us some more info!

It was grown back in the hey day of cigar making (1880's-ish). Used as a wrapper it is very tasty. I have not tried it as a filler though
