Default No blooms on pear trees after 5 years

Thank you all for your assistance. I will give the pear trees a couple more
years & work to spread the branches.

I have a couple pear trees that I purchased from nursery/rootstock 5 and 6
years ago. The oldest was one of those 5-in-1 grafted trees, the other a
Duchess. Both trees are fairly healthy (glossy leaves), and grow a little
bit each year.

My concern is that I have never seen a blossom/fruit yet. Nearby apple
trees started producing 2-3 year after planting. I have pruned them back

in
the past, but have not touched either one the last couple years.

Suggestions?
