Abstract: The new blueberry plant variety ‘FCM12-087’ is provided. ‘FCM12-087’ is a commercial variety intended for the hand harvest fresh market. The new blueberry plant originated from a cross of ‘FL00-180’ (female parent, unpatented) by ‘FF-124’ (pollen parent, unpatented), which can be distinguished by its outstanding features. The new blueberry plant ‘FCM12-087’ as it grows in Tala, Mexico is distinguished by a spreading growth habit, with slightly weeping laterals, very narrowly spaced internodes, and highly evergreen leaves. The new blueberry plant ‘FCM12-087’ has new leaves that are bluish-green in hue and rounded in shape. The flowers of ‘FCM12-087’ are urceolate in shape, and the fruit is firm, large, light blue in color and possesses a flattened shape.
