My mature apricot tree is not giving fruit. I’m guessing ...

Hi Mehmet! How old is your Apricot? Is it in ground or in a container? There are a few reasons why you aren’t getting fruit- but most are self fertile. A mature apricot tree usually fails to fruit due to late spring frosts killing early blooms, lack of winter chill hours, heavy nitrogen fertilizer driving leaf growth instead of flowers, improper pruning times, or insufficient sunlight. Most varieties are self-fertile, meaning pollination partner absence is rarely the primary culprit.
