I had a similar situation and was actually ready to cut it down but that next year lo and behold we had apples, maybe I scared it. Since then I have read that Spy always take a long time to make fruit. My experience is the same with the tree health, it has grown exceptionally well. I must say I am still quite happy with the tree, now making good crops. The time it takes is maybe the reason we don’t find it around here anymore, it is too bad orchards are not as patient as they use to be- it is an awesome apple.
