Hi

A friend in France has asked me to ID a tree/fruit she saw there........
I
have no idea what it is.
I thought it looks a bit like an olive until I read her
description.......

Anyone else have an idea ??

Not absolutely sure but it looks a lot like Acca selweliana (sp) the
pineapple guava. as a shrub or small tree it grows and flowers outside in
the uk but seldom sets fruit.
