Having thus described and illustrated our new variety of nectarine tree, what we claim as new and desire to secure by Plant Letters Patent is: 1. A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree substantially as illustrated and described which is characterized as to novelty by bearing a freestone fruit having a firm flesh and by its general resemblance to the Flamekist nectarine tree (unpatented) from which it was derived as a bud sport but from which it is distinguished therefrom by its bearing fruit which matures for harvesting approximately August 7 through August 14, this date of maturity being approximately five to six days earlier than that of the Flamekist nectarine tree and by producing fruit which have a skin which is more deeply colored than that exhibited by the fruit of the Flamekist nectarine tree.
