Default Fruit trees

Sounds like pollination failure. Many trees need an appropiate
partner, ie one in blossom at the same time. And insects to pollinate
them.
Also, a dry spell can also cause fruit to drop prematurely.


These come to fruit and then when they are half grown ... Is that a failure
of polination? and then there is the scab! This has only happened in the
past 2 years. They fruited fine until then.
