Why Isn’t My Apple Tree Bearing Fruit?

Question

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?

Answer 1

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.
