I love nicotianas, start them inside under lights every year. N Sylvestris is the slowest to germinate and grow, blooms latest, and really does best in full sun. N Alata and N Langsdorfii are more accommodating and I use them all over the place. They bloom first in the sunnier spots of course, but look just as good with less light once they get going.
Pic 1 is N Alata Lime and N Langsdorfii along with daylilies and late blooming heuchera. I put in light colored plants to brighten up what was a dark spot. It gets only morning sun.
Pic 2 is N Alata Niki Pink, Fragrant Angel and N Langsdorfii with echinacea and sedums. This section gets full sun until mid afternoon, then intermittently for the rest of the day.
