Exiting in Kentucky at Cave City on 65 to Nashville, this is near Mammoth Cave. It is near this exit two valuable references exist, quite close to the exit where you take 90 to Glascow.

Arriving on return journey I was surprised to find seven of them, and asked the price. $48 dollars the owner said, but those are all reserved. Thus I thought I should order one ahead of time for next years return journey.

Tennesee Burley Tobacco Plants.
Not far down the road. They have a sign reading;
Tobacco Plants for Sale
 270-678-5774 
Barrett Farm (cell phone for tourists;  270-590-1907 
I have purchased these before on return journey to Ohio, and they welcome tourists coming through. This year I stopped and no one seemed home, and looking in the greenhouse not a plant was to be seen. Brother Robert insisted on knocking on the door, which was a good thing. A very polite woman came out and inquired "Are You'all Tourists?" I ran up to talk to her since I know more about tobacco then my brother. Then she proceeded to talk my proverbial ear off, but I did learn that they grow Two Tennesee Varieties that I have also started from seed over the internet; but this year they were completely sold out... She made a point that tourists were one third of their business, but after arriving home from church(this was Sunday Morning) someone from the congregation put in a rush order.

Yeah Yeah I thought, but next year I will put in a reserve order in advance. In fact I started a new plot today, after somewhat mastering the art of tobacco growing by trial and error. I should mention that there is such a thing as a Tobacco Tree; it comes from Argentina;

A graceful tree that grows to 20 ft. with bright trumpet- shaped yellow flowers and striking glaucous-blue foliage. From Argentina. It makes a wonderful tub plant. Can be grown outdoors in warm climates and makes a striking garden specimen. It is highly valued for its chewing, smoking and medicinal uses. It is said to have only trace nicotine. Hardy to 15 degrees. It will flower when very young.

Last year In Tennesee I brought back Holleyhock seeds, these are now coming up between the Morning Glories now planted this year for the trellis.

Last but not least was the store I didnt visit in Lafayette Tenn.
I am glad to say my memory must still be working as I can remember the No as  615-666-1861 . This is for Confederate Memorabilia. I must call tommorow to put in a rush order, as they might not exist next year. Anyways Everyone taking a vacation have a good time and bring back references for next year.

Sincerely HDN
