It grows as an erect annual or short-lived perennial herb, from ten to 50 centimetres high, with white flowers. [1]
It was first published in 1960 by Nancy Tyson Burbidge, who give it species rank as Nicotiana hesperis. [2] In 1981, Philippa Horton demoted it to a subspecies of Nicotiana occidentalis. [3]
