Chrysophyllum oliviforme (Introduced)

Yes I can see the characteristic golden yellow undersurface of the leaves.

I was waiting for the photograph of this particular tree. This tree is seen in Theosophical society campus,
Chennai.

I think the species is Chrysophyllum oliviforme and not C.cainito.

I agree with … C. cainito has round, about 2″ dia fruits which have star shape segments if cut horizontal (hence called as Star Apple) and are delicious.

Sapotaceae sp. for ID?-030710-PKA1 – efloraofindia | Google Groups : 6 images.

I concur with … A South Florida native.

Chrysophyllum indeed but I doubt about oliviforme.
I imagine if the apex notch is consistent character or just deformity?

it is hrysophyllum oliviforme–Sapotaceae
Satinleaf, Satin Leaf
Origin: Caribbean

Indeed, the notch did have me wondering as well. The trees I see in Florida do not normally have that leaf tip, but in searching online (for what it is worth), I did see other trees with notched foliage. Perhaps it is a separate species then? I’ll try to do a little more research into this soon.
