Latin name - Chrysophyllum oliviforme

Native Satinleaf Tree is a mid- or over-story evergreen tree that’s drought and salt-tolerant. Reminiscent of its fruiting cousin, the Star Apple, Satinleaf Tree sports the same slow growth habit and unique dual-tone foliage. 

The wide spread makes this a wise a choice for a shade tree or garden centerpiece. Small purple-black fruits are sweet, edible, and heartily enjoyed by wildlife.
