The Granny Smith green apple is a tip-bearing apple cultivar, which originated in Australia in 1868.
It is named after Maria Ann Smith, who propagated the cultivar from a chance seedling. The tree is thought to be a hybrid of Malus sylvestris, the European Wild Apple, with the domestic apple M. Domestica as the polleniser.
The fruit has hard, light green skin and a crisp, juicy flesh.
