Apricot Tree Very Few Flowers

My apricot tree (Moorpark) is four years old. The tree looks very healthy and has grown quite tall and wide. The problem is it has very few flowers and even less fruit. We only have five apricots this year. We fertilized in early spring; we live in southern California.
