Abstract

The new blueberry plant variety ‘FCM12-045’ is provided. ‘FCM12-045’ is a commercial variety intended for the hand harvest fresh market. The new blueberry plant originated from a cross of ‘FF-128’ (female parent, unpatented) by ‘ZF04-002’ (pollen parent, unpatented), selected because it flowered and fruited more than most genotypes in a low latitude, zero chill evergreen production system and had larger fruit than the commercial variety Biloxi with a small picking scar.
