Narrative
Fruit: good color, firmness, and flavor; scar medium; pedicel tends to adhere to harvested berry. Early ripening. Low chilling. - Brooks and Olmo Register of Fruit and Nut Varieties, ASHS Press. 1997. p. 181 Originated at Poplarville, Mississippi by J.M. Spiers and A.D. Draper. Southern highbush, mainly Vaccinium corymbosum. Introduced in 1987. G-180 (V. corymbosum) x US 75 (V. darrowi x Bluecrop). Tested as MS-90. Fruit: good color, firmness, and flavor; scar medium; pedicel tends to adhere to harvested berry. Early ripening. Low chilling.Gulf Coast was released by the USDA in 1987. It is not patented and may be propagated without restrictions. Plants are vigorous, semi-upright with medium to high productivity. Fruit are medium in size and firm with good flavor. Gulf Coast has been widely used as a pollinizer for Sharpblue and Misty. It has preformed better than most varieties in southwest Florida. A major problem associated with Gulf Coast is a tendency for stems to remain attached to fruit during harvest. This can cause additional expense during picking and grading. Gulf Coast remains one of the more widely grown varieties south of I-4 - University of Florida extension.
