    borgadr, I said the leaves are not furry/fuzzy at all, but I take that back. I was just feeling the leaves and they are a bit fuzzy even though they don't look like it.

    Well, it turns out it is a tobacco plant after all!  Even though the leaves are a bit ugly, I decided to leave it and see what happens, and with this hot weather and a bit of watering, I got some flowers.

    I grew tobacco when I was a teenager - the enormous leaves were about 3ft long and the plants got to about 7ft
    It didn't go as planned though - I stacked the leaves and left them to ferment when we went on holiday and came back to some very smelly black gunge :)
