I claim: 1. A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree substantially as illustrated and described which is somewhat remotely similar to the ‘July Red’ nectarine tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,663), but from which it is distinguished by producing fruit which are mature for commercial harvesting and shipment approximately July 14 to July 28, or about two (2) to three (3) days after, the ‘July Red’ nectarine tree, and which is characterized as an attractive, early midseason ripening, large size, white fleshed nectarine with high quality and good productivity.
