Yes I can see the characteristic golden yellow undersurface of the leaves.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

I was waiting for the photograph of this particular tree. This tree is seen in Theosophical society campus,
\nChennai.<\/p>\n

\n

I think the species is Chrysophyllum oliviforme<\/em> and not C.cainito<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n

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

Came across this tree (Looks like Cultivated one) in Mumbai. ID pl..
\nLooks like some sp. of Chrysophyllum<\/em>??
\nFamily: Sapotaceae<\/em>??
\nDate\/Time: 28-06-2010 \/ 06:00PM
\nLocation: Mumbai<\/span>
\nHabitat: Looks like cultivated, Garden sp.
\nPlant Habit: Tree
\nHeight: Tree almost 8 m tall with reasonable good canopy and<\/span>
\nLeaves: Alternate, elliptic, 3 to 7cm,\u00a0 rounded at apex, petiole rusty brown 8 to 10mm, nerves 10 to 14 pairs, leaves shining green above and Golden-brown beneath
\nFlowers: small in cluster, 5 to 7mm, pedicel 5mm, stamens 5<\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n
Chrysophyllum<\/em> for sure !!
\nChrysophyllum<\/span> oliviforme<\/span><\/i><\/span> is the call from me<\/div>\n
\n
\n

I concur with … A South Florida native.<\/p>\n

\n

Chrysophyllum<\/em> indeed but I doubt about oliviforme<\/em>.
\nI imagine if the apex notch is consistent character or just deformity?<\/p>\n

\n

it is hrysophyllum\u00a0oliviforme–Sapotaceae<\/em>
\nSatinleaf, Satin Leaf<\/strong>
\nOrigin: Caribbean

\nhttp:\/\/www.tradewindsfruit.satin_leaf_tree.htm<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

\n

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.<\/p>\n
