Pippin Apple Malus domestica ‘Pippin’
The Pippin Apple Tree, scientifically known as Malus domestica, is a renowned apple cultivar celebrated for its distinct flavor profile and culinary versatility. Characterized by greenish-yellow skin, sometimes with a reddish blush, and firm, crisp flesh, the Pippin apple offers a balanced taste with a tangy-sweet flavor profile. The tree typically grows to a moderate size, reaching heights of 15 to 25 feet and spreading 10 to 20 feet wide. Thriving in temperate climates with well-drained soil and full sun exposure, it requires pruning to maintain shape and encourage fruiting. While partially self-fertile, cross-pollination with another compatible variety enhances fruit set and yield. The fruit is ready to be enjoyed in late September and early October. This tree is currently the most disease-resistant apple on the planet.
