The origin of the Purps varieties
Plants with purple flowers have existed for centuries, but the first deliberate breeding took place in California in the 1980s. Landraces from Afghanistan and Thailand, which grew in cool conditions, naturally developed a purple coloration. Targeted crossbreeding resulted in the legendary Granddaddy Purple, one of the first known purple varieties.
In the years that followed, numerous varieties with intense coloring and a distinct aroma were bred. Strains such as Purple Kush or Purple Punch became world-famous for their relaxing effect and unique flavor profile.
