Zone 5A | Mom heads help added on June 9, 2023 | Answered

Bought farm has 1 apple tree in yard. It lays at 45* produced 100s of blooms no apples (guessing no pollinator tree). Will addition of a 2nd tree produce apples. Neighbor says tractor backed into it. Should I cut it down. ( I THINK ITS CUTE) Will be trimming suckers and lessening branch load. Just not sure which ones should go because of its angle. Suggestions?
