LL75 7 DRQ.Why Isn’t My Apple Tree Bearing Fruit?
I have 2 different verities of apple trees within 2 meters of one another along a wall in full sun. Both healthy, disease and infestation free. Both was full of blossom. One is loaded with apples and the other has one. Was the same last year. Do you know the problem?

Certified ExpertA.It sounds like one of your varieties is a pollenizer for the other, but not the other way around. This can happen from time to time. There is not much that you can do, but you can add a third cultivar that is a pollenizer for the tree that does not produce well.
Here is an article that will help:

August 6, 2021Q.How To Treat My Apple Tree
There are brown/rust coloured spots on the leaves and evidence of some insect infestation through wavy lines. The fruit looks ok. I think it’s a Cox’s.

Certified ExpertA.These articles should help:
The spots could be cedar apple rust which is worse for any nearby junipers.
The wavy lines are leaf miners and they are hard to control once they are inside the leaves.

Certified ExpertA.Unfortunately, your photo did not come through. It sounds like the top scion of the graft has died, leaving behind the rootstock. This is usually a different variety than what the top scion is.

Attached is a photo of my apple and leaf. All of the apples are like this and they seem to rot fast after they fall. Apples are falling before they are ripe.

Certified ExpertA.There are many diseases that can plague apple. This reminds me of the start of Brown Rot (Monilinia fructicola). Though they are common on stone fruits, it can happen in apples, as well.
