Don,

Cortland is listed as a 'tip-bearer' which means you have to be careful how
you
prune it or you'll prune off all the flower buds.

Northern Spy has similar problem.

Unfortunately, my
: Early Cortland tree, although large and mature, has never had enough
: blossoms to set a decent crop of fruit in spite of my best efforts to
: prune and shape it into submission. The same thing is happening again
: this spring. I can see fewer than a dozen blossom clusters up there.
: The tree is over 10 years old, and I still don't have enough fruit to
: even make a judgment on it.
