Those in bold are cigar varieties. Kelly is burley. Black Mammoth is a dark air-cured variety. Shirazi is classed as an Oriental.

Wow, lucky me, as I grew all my varieties side by side, would you expect cross contamination of seed to be a major worry ?

cross contamination of seed

Unless you bagged the bud heads prior to blossom opening, then cross-pollination is a certainty.
