Plants grow naturally and spontaneously in the fields year after year.. Some plants were found in an aorchard and moved to another location to protect them from sheep. The origin of these plants is unknown.

The plants are very resistant to water scarcity as they were never watered all summer and it was very hot and dry.
All males were left to pollinate all the females and after the males died (end of August) the females started to produce new pistils and more resin.  Some show purple hues.

The smells range from sweet-solvent to sweet and fruity, sour, orange.  Some are stickier than others, flower density is from ok-ish to low. The collumnar pheno was the fastest flowering, producing seeds already in July. She has pale brown seeds. Others have spotted black, or very nice camouflage design, brown and black.  Suitable for chars, not bud.  Some feral plants have been also found during the summer. They had better bud density.

They started flowering in July. The columnar one is very interesting because it is the fastest  and the branches are packed with buds and after the males were removed, the plants showed nice terps and purple nuances. Some have very thin leaves.
