Last year I planted 4 trees which had berries. None of the trees had berries this year. Any ideas why?

Someone else asked a similar question a couple of days ago. That thread is here:

Apart from the reasons we gave on the thread linked to above, the almost continual heavy rain and cool weather which caused a significant lack of pollinating insects this spring is likely to have something to do with it.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Next year to look forward to then!
Hi Rosebud. I have a similar problem and like me,you will have to be patient.
Thanks for the solidarity Dolores2, we can touch base again next season!
Of course it could be a male tree! Has it berried before? If so, then everyone here is right re pollinators etc.
