Appearance and Structure

Coloration can include shades of green with potential lavender hues appearing under cooler temperatures during late flowering.
Aroma and Flavor
The aroma of Blue Dream Bx2 is characterized by prominent notes of sugared blueberry and ripe berry jam upon breaking open the jar. Secondary aromas include sweet cream, fresh pine, and a subtle hint of lemon, reflecting its Haze heritage. Upon grinding, the scent intensifies to candied fruit and blue raspberry, complemented by a clean, woody finish. A light incense-like note may emerge as the flower warms, reminiscent of dried herbs.
