Nicotiana acuminata is a species of wild tobacco known by the English common name manyflower tobacco.^{[citation needed]} It is native to Argentina and Chile but it is known on other continents, including North America and Australia, as an introduced species.^{[citation needed]}

It is an annual herb exceeding a meter in maximum height. The leaf blades may be 25 centimeters long and are borne on petioles. The inflorescence bears several white or green-tinged flowers with tubular throats up to 4 centimeters long, their bases enclosed in green-striped sepals.^{[citation needed]}

It was first described by Robert Graham in 1828 as Petunia acuminata,^[2]^[1] but was transferred to the genus, Nicotiana in 1829 by William Jackson Hooker^[1]^[3]

In On The Origin of Species, Charles Darwin mentions that N. acuminata is not a particularly distinct species, which is failed to fertilise or to be fertilised, by no less than eight other species of Nicotiana.^[4]^{[clarification needed]}
