Chrysophyllum oliviforme Family: Sapotaceae Satinleaf, Satin Leaf Origin: Caribbean This is a relative of Star Apple (Caimito - Chrysophyllum cainito) which is a popular fruit, well known among the people of the Caribbean. The fruit of the Satinleaf is much smaller than the Caimito, just a little dark purple berry, about an inch in diameter. Satinleaf is an ornamental medium-sized tree with a mature height of up to 30 feet and distinctive foliage: shiny olive on top, silky silvery gold underneath. You might use one in your backyard as a shade tree, an easier-to-manage alternative to live oak. Link to this plant: http://toptropicals.com/catalog/uid/chrysophyllum_oliviforme.htm
