Tobacco was the American colonies' chief export. The Jamestown colonists had not found gold, nor a route to the South Seas, nor the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island. But they had found tobacco. Tobacco had brought the settlement from wretched failure to giddying success.
Bright tobacco (also known as flue cured or Virginia tobacco) is grown in the Piedmont and Coastal Plain from Northern Florida to Maryland. Strip the paper from a cigarette today, and the different color of tobaccos inside are obvious.icotinia rustica migrated north from Mexico, presumably with the help of Native American farmers, and was being grown in Virginia when Jamestown was settled. John Rolfe is credited with importing Nicotiana tabacum seeds, so Virginians could grow a species of tobacco that was less harsh when smoked.
