I have two peach trees that I need to get producing. Both were planted 8 years ago and actually had fruit on them when we bought them. However, they have never produced again. We generally have many blossoms in the spring. We've fertilized in the early spring about 5 out of the 8 years. Both are about 15 feet tall and never really pruned.

Any suggestions would be appreciated! We're in central Indiana, zone 6.

Susan, welcome to permies.

Our daughter had the same problem.  When we bought the tree it had fruit on it.

Here is a thread where I asked the same question.  Maybe this will help:
