Re: Strange fruit, but what is it ??

'Sacha[_3_ Wrote:

The fruit is a bit like what appears on my Cornus kousa, (though in
other ways worryingly different), and it appears in the right position
relative to the leaves, but I think the leaves themselves are just
totally wrong for a Cornus.  There is a very particular venation
pattern to a cornus leaf which just doesn't seem to be on this one.  

It isn't right for lychee, either. If you have ever been where they
grow them, you get a "stick" of lychees, ie the fruit grow close
together along a branchlet, as you also get with dates-on-a-stick,
suggesting the flowers were a loose raceme.

As to what else it might be, sorry no further ideas.
