About

Also known as Lowell, Greasy Pippi. Fruit rather large. Clear yellow with waxy surface. Flesh a little coarse, very juicy, sprightly, subacid, and desirable for either dessert or culinary uses. It is apt to drop as it ripens.The tree is a good cropper but is sometimes biennial. Tallow Pippin Apple was a most important variety in the apple orchards of a generation ago. It is preeminently an apple for the home orchard, since it furnishes fruit for dessert or cooking from late summer to early winter. The flesh, while coarse, is pleasantly flavored, and the large, bright-yellow apples, with a most perceptible coating of wax, giving rise to the expressive names Greasy Pippin and lowell, are very attractive in appearance. Where and when it originated is not known, but it has been under cultivation for at least a century and is generally distributed throughout the East and North.
