When my brother born i planted a pip.

Now the tree is 17yrs old.

We went to get it to flower, then produce apples.

How do you actually make it blossom?

Any help much appreciated

Si

Now the tree isnt 17yrs old.
Isn't it? How old is it then?

But to answer your question, simple reproduction. You need another tree from which to pollenate it.

Not 100% but I think it's just a case of cutting a v shaped groove into a fork in the tree, trimming the cutting from another tree to fit nice and snugg, insert and tape up with some of that material type tape to keep the germs and bugs out, then about 3-6 months down the road it will have taken,
Alternatively plant another tree beside it and let the bees do the rest.

Try: GreenFingers or even the RHS website. Both have a lot of good info on them.
