Appearance

Flowers are typically medium to large and conical, featuring a calyx-forward structure generously coated in trichomes. The coloration ranges from lime to forest green, often accompanied by peach to apricot pistils that deepen to rust as the plant matures. Some phenotypes may exhibit faint pink or rose-gold tones during late flower, especially under cooler conditions.

The buds possess a favorable calyx-to-leaf ratio, with bracts arranged in layered spirals. Abundant capitate-stalked gland heads are visible under magnification, indicating good potential for rosin and solventless extraction.
