I have 2 apple
trees that were purchased and planted about 4-5 years ago. I don't remember what the names of the apples are, but when I bought them at a reputable nursery, I was assured that they would pollinate one another. The first 2 years the harvest was sparse, the next two years the squirrels got the apples before I could, and LAST year I had an abundance of blossoms and lots of tiny apples. But most of them fell off the
tree before they matured. From dozens of blossoms on both
trees the number of mature apples numbered 11 on one
tree and 9 on the other. What can I do to get a good harvest this year?
