It is often associated with Dragon's Blood Hashplant, a lineage blending traditional hashplant density with tropical, berry-like nuances.

Dragon's Blood plants typically produce dense, trichome-covered colas. Phenotypes may display deep forest green foliage contrasted by crimson pistils and burgundy bracts, particularly under cooler temperatures. Leaf morphology is hybrid, with broad primary leaflets and a thick cuticle.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma is predominantly incense and sandalwood, with a sweet, resinous spice. A subtle metallic or iron-like note is often detected, contributing to its unique name. Flavors can include berry, cedar, and hints of tropical fruit or pineapple in some expressions.
Effects
Dragon's Blood is generally described as providing a balanced yet potent effect. Consumers report a heavy-handed experience that is both aesthetically striking and functionally significant.

Growing
Dragon's Blood is considered a hybrid with variable phenotypes. Hashplant-leaning plants often exhibit faster finishing times and stockier frames, while others may show stretchier, sativa-leaning architecture. Genetic stability is strong for resin production and bud density.
Origins & Lineage
