Bella Donna

Cannabis Strain by Pro Seed

Introduction
Bella Donna from Pro Seed — Paradise Seeds' premium sub-brand — takes its name from the poisonous plant Atropa belladonna, historically used both as a cosmetic (the berries were used to dilate pupils in Renaissance-era Italian beauty practice) and a poison. The double meaning is appropriate for a cannabis variety: beautiful and dangerous in equal measure, completing in approximately 63 days of flowering.

Lineage
Paradise Seeds is a Dutch cannabis genetics company established in 1994 and among the longest-running professional seed companies in the international market — 'leading cannabis genetics since 1994' per their own description, with a client base spanning home growers, businesses, and medical facilities worldwide. Pro Seed is Paradise Seeds' professional or premium tier, and Bella Donna appears in this premium bracket. Paradise Seeds has a history of developing well-documented varieties with published genetic lineages; however, specific parent strain information for Bella Donna under the Pro Seed designation is not found in readily accessible public summaries. The variety type is listed as unknown in catalogue records, which is unusual for Paradise Seeds whose mainstream catalogue is well-documented — suggesting Bella Donna may be a proprietary Pro Seed cross with restricted lineage disclosure.

Terpenes
The terpene profile for a Paradise Seeds premium variety at 63 days is likely to be aromatic and well-developed, given the company's three-decade track record with genetic selection. The name 'Bella Donna' and its floral, dangerous connotations suggest a linalool-forward or terpinolene-influenced aromatic profile: floral, herbal, and slightly intoxicating in character rather than the heavy earthiness of indica-dominant genetics.

Growth
Growth at 63 days from a professional Dutch seed company: reliable, documented, and suited to both commercial and domestic cultivation. Paradise Seeds' mainstream reputation suggests above-average germination rates and genetic consistency.

Effects
Reported effects are not specifically documented for the Pro Seed Bella Donna beyond the 63-day flowering and unknown type classification. Paradise Seeds' premium tier implies quality phenotype selection.

Documentation
Reported applications are consistent with the unknown-type 63-day hybrid format: versatile recreational and therapeutic use.
