Pewaukee is an apple cultivar entry with parentage listed as Duchess × Northern Spy and an origin in Wisconsin.[S1]
The entry classifies it as a standard apple, with fruit size given as 5 cm or more in diameter, and notes that the fruit is late and drops too readily.[S1]
The same source includes references tied to WCSH and Smithfield, where the name appears as both Pewaukee and Peawakee (FB2 H2); the spelling difference is present in the record itself.[S1]
