Yellow Bellflower is a cultivar of domesticated apple that originated in New Jersey.[1][2] It has many other names including "Belle Flavoise" and "Lincoln Pippin".[1] It is probably the best known of a group of apple cultivars referred to as the yellow bellflower group, with fruit that are generally elongated, with largely yellow skin.[1] Along with the Yellow Bellflower, the Ortley is the oldest of the group.[1]
