The Fall Pippin is an American variety. Probably a seedling from the White Spanish Reinette, or the Holland pippin, both of which it much resembles. It differs most strongly in the season of maturity. The Fall Pippin is a noble fruit, and is considered the first of the autumn apples in the Middle States, where its beauty, large size, and delicious flavor for the table or for cooking, render it very popular.

The. tree is a very vigorous, strong grower, upright spreading. Young shoots are reddish brown.

Fruit very large, roundish, generally a little flattened, pretty regular, sometimes with obscure ribs at the eye. Stalk rather long, three-fourths of an inch, projecting considerably beyond the fruit, set in a rather small, shallow, round cavity. Calyx open, not very large, rather deeply sunk in a round, narrow basin.

Skin smooth, yellowish green, becoming a fine yellow, with often a tinge of brownish blush on one side, and with a few scattered dots

Ripens August to September.
