Abstract: A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree denominated varietally as "Summer Lion--Three" which is somewhat similar to the Red Lion Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,591) and the May Grand Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,794) with which it is most closely related but which is distinguished therefrom and characterized as to novelty by producing fruit which are mature for commercial harvesting approximately July 25 through August 5 in Fresno County, Calif. and which further produces fruit that has a large size, a yellow-colored firm flesh, and is freestone by nature.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of Nectarine Tree which is somewhat similar to the Arm King Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,943) and the Summer Grand Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,879) with which it is most closely related but which is distinguished therefrom and characterized as to novelty by producing fruit which are mature for commercial harvesting approximately May 18 through May 25 in the central part of the San Joaquin Valley of central California, and which further produces fruit which display a dark red skin color and which have a firm flesh and a clingstone nature.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree which is somewhat similar to the Red Lion Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,591) and the May Grand Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,794) with which it is most closely related but which is distinguished therefrom and characterized as to novelty by producing fruit which are mature for commercial harvesting approximately July 1 through July 12 in Fresno County, Calif. and which further produces fruit that exhibits a bright red skin color, a yellow colored, firm flesh and has excellent eating qualities.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree which is somewhat similar to the May Grand Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 2,794), and the Red Lion Nectarine Tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,591) with which it is most closely related but which it is distinguished therefrom by producing fruit which are mature for commercial harvesting approximately July 10 through July 19 and which further produces a very large, globose shaped fruit having a freestone nature and which exhibits a dark burgundy red to a lighter cherry red skin color, a clear amber-yellow colored flesh and has excellent eating qualities.

Abstract: A new and distinct variety of nectarine tree which is somewhat similar to the "Red Lion" nectarine tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,591) from which it was derived as a cross with the "Summer Lion" nectarine tree (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 6,544), but from which it is distinguished by producing fruit which are mature for harvesting and shipment approximately eight (8) days prior to the fruit produced by the "Red Lion" nectarine tree and wherein the fruit is of an outstanding quality having a very good flavor, a highly red blush skin coloration and superior eating quality.
