Kerry_BBB starts with ... Hi I would appreciate some help in identifying a tree which appears to be starting to fruit. I noticed it because the cockatoos went into it and ripped off just about all the flower fronds/branches. It seems to have long stem fronds on which the leaves alternate down the stem. It tends to flower at the end of the frond. Tiny little white flowers probably about .75 cm wide, which are in bunches. Now they have turned into tiny mini fruits, but are not big enough to identify yet. The leaves are soft looking though some of the older ones look darker green. The leaves alternate photo also shows the one of the main branches. Thanks very much for your help. Kerry :)

It looks like cotoneaster https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cotoneaster they are a relative of apples pears, quinces the cockatoos love to eat the seeds from the fruit. | About the Author allybanana EDEN, NSW 20th February 2016 11:58am #UserID: 4544 Posts: 372 View All allybanana's Edible Fruit Trees |
