I have an Ouillons Golden Gage plum tree that is around 5 years old and stands around 3.5 metres high by 3 metres spread. I checked before buying and it is self-fertile though I do have a Victoria plum nearby. It has never fruited or blossomed yet always looks healthy so is anybody able to help suggest as to why please?
Thanks Dave
Is this tree a full size or a semi-dwarf. If it is a full size tree, it can take several years before it bears fruit, possibly 6 years. Be a bit more patient.

No blossoms no fruit. The tree may still be a bit young.
Have you ever done a soil test? I used to live in Arkansas and the gardener that came on TV once a week, used to advise using a "super phosphate" to make trees/flowering plants bloom. We could get it at a Co-op locally in 50 lb bags, and it was rated as 0-52-0. It worked very well on my fruit trees and roses. Since we have moved, I haven't had my soil tested, but I have been told that we don't have to ad that to our soil in Western Kansas.
