Source History
Developed
1992.
Florida, United States
Comment: Misty was released by the University of Florida in 1992. It is not patented and may be propagated without restrictions. Its bloom and harvest season are similar to Sharpblue and for many years it was the major pollinizer for Sharpblue in Florida. Fruit quality is excellent on plants that do not overbear. However, plants tend to have very heavy flower bud set and produce an overabundance of fruit and leaf poorly in the spring. The stress associated with the heavy crop load and poor leafing often leads to severe infections of blueberry stem blight. It is extremely important with this variety to remove all fruit and flowers from one and 2-year old plants. Heavy winter pruning and use of Dormex have partially alleviated the problems associated with overbearing and poor foliation. Misty is gradually being replaced by newer superior varieties.

Narrative
Fruit: large; light blue; scar, firmness, and flavor good. Plant: upright; vigorous; should be interplanted with other southern highbush for pollination; tends to produce excessive flower buds and usually requires winter pruning to reduce flowering potential. Parially to completely evergreen in central Florida. If it defoliates in winter, it may flower long before producing new leaves, in which case it is highly suceptible to stem blight. Chilling requirement about 300 hours. - Brooks and Olmo Register of Fruit and Nut Cultivars. 1997. ASHS Press. p. 183.'Challenger' name used by Hartman's prior to offic. release. Later released as 'Misty' Fruit: medium to large; light blue. Scar, firmness and flavor good. Plant: upright and vigorous. Should be interplanted with other low-chill highbush cultivars for pollination. Produces large numbers of flower buds and may require summer pruning to promote adequate spring leafing. - Register of New Fruit and Nut Varieties, Brooks and Olmo, ASHS Press 1997.Early. Bush erect with narrow crown at maturity. Medium to large fruit, very firm, light blue. Excellent flavorMisty has become the most popular variety in Florida where it is liked for its high yields and consistent quality. Here in the West we find Misty to be quite vigorous, growing very well both on the coast and in the inland heat. The fruit is of exceptional quality and one of the first to ripen. It is normally picked 3-5 times during harvest. Best results are obtained when Misty is pruned heavily to avoid over-cropping. Of particular interest is Misty's tendency to partially flower and fruit in the fall. Little is known of this phenomenon but there may be definite possibilities to harvest a spring and fall crop in areas with warm, extended falls. We recommend Misty for commercial production in areas with chilling as low as 150 hours and all areas with mild winters and hot summers.Misty. I named it this because I liked the word and because it connotes the light-blue color of the fruit. (per. comm., Paul Lyrene, 11 September 2003).
