No magic apples for these dwarfs | In the Green Room

I have two dwarf apple trees which are bearing small fruits, but do not have enough leaves. I’m not sure what is wrong: they look almost like sticks. They’re both four years old, one is the Jonathon variety and the other is a Lady Williams. I feed them sheep manure and citrus fertilizer four times a year, and sprinkle on rock dust, so I don’t think it could be a nutrition problem. Do you know why they haven’t grown any leaves?
