# Purple Punch

Purple Punch is a dessert-leaning purple cultivar associated with grape, berry, vanilla, and herbal aromas. It rose quickly in the late 2010s as candy-grape branding spread through clone and seed markets that already loved Cookies-era dessert naming.

Commonly published parentage lists Larry OG × Granddaddy Purple. That bridges OG-family naming with purple GDP lore. Records conflict among remakes that reuse Purple Punch with different recipes; verify breeder when possible and keep Unknown when notes are missing.

Why it mattered: Purple Punch became a parent in popular crosses such as Wedding Crasher (commonly Wedding Cake × Purple Punch) and reinforced grape-dessert retail categories. Live related pages include [GDP](/strain/gdp), [Wedding Cake](/strain/wedding-cake), [Wedding Crasher](/strain/wedding-crasher), and Cookies-cluster peers [GSC](/strain/gsc) and [Gelato](/strain/gelato).

Terpene names often discussed include [Caryophyllene](/terpene/Caryophyllene), [Limonene](/terpene/Limonene), [Linalool](/terpene/Linalool), [Myrcene](/terpene/Myrcene), and [Humulene](/terpene/Humulene). Educational only. Purple color alone does not prove GDP or Punch kinship.

Love The Plant keeps this entry educational: origin notes, published parent models, why the line mattered historically, linked relatives on the live strain list, and terpene names for aroma literacy. No medical claims, no invented lab percentages, and no forced pedigree where sources disagree—Unknown remains a valid and preferred label. Local trees on each related page beat giant unverified graphs.

Read linked family and terpene pages for aroma vocabulary and member lists. When two reputable tellings disagree on parents, this library includes a conflict note and refuses to invent lab figures or medical claims for any cut.
