Also known as: Butter Pippin, Large Golden Pippin, Mammoth, Pound Royal, York Pippin.

"Another of the many old American apples with an incomplete history. Known to have originated as an American apple around 1880, the original parentage is unknown. A distinct variety from the better known English variety, English Golden Pippin. A large, roundish fruit with a uniform shape. Skin is greenish-gold ripening to deep gold. The flesh is yellowish, tender and juicy. An excellent apple for fresh eating and baking. Ripens in September."

Available at Big Horse Creek Farm.
