apple tree

Ive got an apple tree for the last 4 years ( 🏫since we moved in here) each year its had masses of apples , its not a huge tree this year there were lots of blossom and masses of leaves and very healthy leaves i was wondering if fruit trees have a rest every now and again , its a knarled  old thing it grows on a slant and who ever planted it staked it to a lump of rusty pipe and didnt loosen the string which cut into the trunk , we pulled out the pipe and managed to get the string off as well so all in all its had a hard life 😢

was the blossom caught by the frost ?Mine was this year.

We do all that and pinch off damaged leaves the apples thats there are well on their way
