Agronomic profile

The defining feature of ZF08070 is its fruit size. With consistent yields of 2.5–3.0 grams and a diameter of 16–18 mm, this variety competes with the best premium berries currently available for the fresh market. The firm, dark blue skin ensures excellent post-harvest durability, which is essential for long-distance logistics.

• Flavor Profile: A sophisticated balance of sweetness, mild acidity, and a deep, intense blueberry aroma.
• Phenology: A mid-season ripening cycle (65–75 days) allows growers to target optimal market windows effectively.
• Flowering: The bloom period occurs throughout May and June, making it well-adapted to moderate climatic zones.

For professional producers, selecting ZF08070 is an investment in Fall Creek’s proven genetics. The patented breeding ensures predictable crop performance and high berry uniformity, which significantly minimizes sorting and packing costs. This variety is designed for growers who prioritize consistent, high-quality yields over mass-market volume.
