It is seen briefly, being smoked by [[Admiral Adama]] and [[Laura Roslin]] during the New Caprica groundbreaking ceremony. When Adama asks Roslin about the plant, she confirms that it grows wild in the area.

Adama and Roslin also enjoy another smoking interlude after she is confined to sickbay in the last stages of cancer. Roslin kept a cigar of the leaf secreted away in one of her books {{TRS|Islanded in a Stream of Stars}}. The two smoke the leaf while discussing ''[[Galactica (TRS)|Galactica]]''{{'|s}} deterioration.
