I am very confused about this evergreen tree in my backyard. I break the leaves that look like laurel leaves but I can't smell anything. The leaves are lance shape with smooth edges and come bunched to the same stem in groups of five. The fruit looks brown like a stone when ripe. The flesh is light brown and is a bit sweet but I am afraid to indulge on it since I don't know what it is. The fruit has a seed inside with the shape and size of a large a garlic clove with a long stem. I noticed that the fruit of this tree does not have a thick stem like all pictures I have seen in the web. Instead, it is thin in long just as limes. I estimate the height to be about forty feet and is rather slim, the shadow being about ten feet in diameter. Any pointers would be much appreciated
Togata57: thanks for the reply. I don't think is a fig tree as the fruit skin is not smooth and the seed is different (the seed is pictured next to the one cent coin in the picture). also the leaves are different.
