ZAFFRON
ZAFFRON IS THE CULMINATION OF 5 YEARS OF SELECTIVE BREEDING, BRINGING TOGETHER TWO OF OUR MOST PROVEN IN-HOUSE VARIETIES: ZERBERRY & PEACH GUAVA. MULTIPLE GENERATIONS OF HUNTING, TESTING, AND BREEDING TO GET TO THIS POINT.
THE ZERBERRY MOTHER ORIGINATES FROM WORK WE DID 5 YEARS AGO WHEN I BRED THE ZUNAMI, WHICH IS ORIGINAL Z POLLINATED BY OUR MALE GELATO 41 X SHERB BX1, A PROVEN STUD WHICH HAS BECOME A CORNERSTONE IN OUR BREEDING PROGRAM. I THEN DID A SELECTION ON A LARGE POPULATION AND FOUND A PHENO WHICH HAD ALL THE BAG APPEAL FROM ITS 41 X SHERB BX1 LINEAGE, AND A BALANCED BLEND OF BOTH PARENTS IN THE TERP DEPARTMENT. I THEN HIT THAT SELECTION WITH REVERSED RS11 POLLEN AND HUNTED AN OUTLIER RENOWNED FOR ITS VIBRANT FRUIT AND CANDY PROFILE.
ON THE PATERNAL SIDE, PEACH GUAVA WAS DEVELOPED THROUGH SEVERAL GENERATIONS OF SELECTION INVOLVING PINK LIMEZ, TACO COLADA, AND KEY LIME GUAVA. THE RESULT IS A LINE DEVELOPED SPECIFICALLY FOR ITS OUTSTANDING RESIN PRODUCTION, WASHING POTENTIAL, AND UNMISTAKABLE EXOTIC FRUIT NOSE.
TOGETHER, THESE TWO BREEDING PROJECTS HAVE CREATED A PROGENY THAT DELIVERS INTENSE EXOTIC FRUIT AROMAS LAYERED WITH SWEET CANDY, TROPICAL GUAVA, AND CREAMY CONFECTIONARY UNDERTONES.
ZAFFRON OFFERS THE KIND OF TERP PROFILE, VISUAL APPEAL, AND RESIN OUTPUT SOUGHT AFTER BY BOTH FLOWER AND H*SH LOVERS ALIKE.
