Abstract
The new blueberry plant variety ‘FF03-015’ is provided. ‘FF03-015’ is a commercial variety intended for the hand harvest, fresh market. The variety is produced from a cross of ‘FL95-52’ and ‘Sunshine Blue’, and can be distinguished by its outstanding features. The variety has good vigor, ripens very early and produces excellent yields of large berries with good flavor.
Description
Latin name of the genus and species:
Genus—Vaccinium.
Species—corymbosum.
Variety denomination: The new blueberry plant claimed is of the variety denominated ‘FF03-015’.
None.
The present invention relates to the discovery of a new and distinct cultivar of southern highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L. hybrid) plant, referred to as ‘FF03-015’, as herein described and illustrated. The cross that produced ‘FF03-015’ was made in Florida, and seeds were subsequently sent to Oregon for germination and evaluation of the resulting seedlings. The new blueberry plant variety ‘FF03-015’ was selected in Lowell, Oreg. in 2010 because its fruit ripened early and had good flavor. ‘FF03-015’ is a commercial variety intended for the hand harvest fresh market. The variety has good vigor, ripens very early and produces excellent yields of large berries with good flavor. After being selected as a seedling in Oregon, ‘FF03-015’ was trialed in California, USA; Colima, Mexico; and Huelva, Spain. When grown under protected tunnels in an evergreen production system in Spain, ‘FF03-015’ produced excellent yields of large fruit for such an early ripening variety.
Pedigree and History: The new blueberry plant originated from a cross of ‘FL95-52’ (female parent, unpatented) by ‘Sunshine Blue’ (pollen parent, unpatented). The cross that produced ‘FF03-015’ was made in Gainesville, Fla., USA in 2000.
The new Vaccinium hybrid cultivar is a selection resulting from seedlings produced in a controlled breeding program of Vaccinium at Lowell, Oreg., USA in 2010 from the controlled pollination of seed parent ‘FL95-52’ (unpatented) and pollen parent ‘Sunshine Blue’ (unpatented).
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by cutting propagation since the 2010 at Lowell, Oreg., USA has demonstrated that the new cultivar reproduces true to type with all the characteristics, as herein described, firmly fixed and retained through successive generations of such asexual propagation.
The new cultivar was selected as a single plant within a population of plants resulting from this controlled pollination of Vaccinium hybrids in the year 2010 in a commercial field planting environment at Lowell, Oreg. Selection criteria were a combination of good vigor, very early ripening and excellent yields of large berries with good flavor. The selection was subsequently evaluated for 5 years at Lowell, Oreg. USA.
The following characteristics of the new cultivar have been repeatedly observed and can be used to distinguish ‘FF03-015’ as a new and distinct cultivar of Vaccinium hybrid plant:
-
- 1. Growth habit—Upright, round
- 2. Timing of beginning of flowering—Flowering throughout the year, from end of February to end of May.
- 3. Timing of fruit ripening—Start at the middle of April in Lowell, Oreg.
- 4. Plant growth vigor—Vigorous.
- 5. Berry color—Ripe berry color from Pantone colors Dapple Gray 16-3907 to Crown Blue 19-3926.
- 6. Berry firmness—Low.
- 7. Picking scar—Small with an average of 1.4 mm in diameter.
- 8. Leaf width—Average of 24.78 mm.
- 9. Berry size—Medium-small with a diameter average of 14.79 mm.
- 10. Berry sweetness—Moderate.
The female parent ‘FL95-52’ has not been evaluated side by side with ‘FF03-015’ in the same environment. However, the new variety differs from the unpatented male parent ‘Sunshine Blue’ in that ‘FF03-015’ is a tall upright bush, that produces very early light blue fruit, while ‘Sunshine Blue’ is a semi-dwarf round bush, with midseason, medium dark colored fruit. The new blueberry plant variety ‘FF03-015’ has maintained its distinguishing characteristics throughout successive asexual propagations. The variety has been repeatedly asexually reproduced through softwood cuttings in Lowell, Oreg., and the clones are phenotypically identical to the original plant.
The accompanying photographic illustration shows typical specimens in full color of the foliage and fruit of the new variety ‘FF03-015’. The colors are as nearly true as is reasonably possible in a color representation of this type.
The colors in the photographs are as close as possible with the photographic and printing technology utilized. The color values cited in the detailed botanical description accurately describe the colors of the new blueberry.
The following detailed description sets forth the distinctive characteristics of ‘FF03-015’. The data which defines these characteristics was collected from asexual reproductions of the original selection. Dimensions, sizes, colors, and other characteristics are approximations and averages set forth as accurately as possible. The plant history was taken on plants approximately 5 years of age, and the descriptions relate to plants grown in the field in Lowell, Oreg. Descriptions of fruit characteristics were made on fruit grown in Lowell, Oreg. Color designations are from Pantone color code source. Color designations are from The Pantone Book of Color: Over 1000 Color Standards: Color Basics and Guidelines for Design, Fashion, Furnishings . . . and More (by Leatrice Eiseman and Lawrence Herbert, Harry N. Abrams, Inc., Publishers, New York, 1990).
