Not a pear as the leaves are too tough and waxy. Not likely a camellia or
you'd've noticed big flowers and the occasional fruit would look more like
an apple. Tempting to suggest the somewhat exotic Java Apple (Szyzygium
samarangense) or some other species of Szyzygium. If that's it, the fruit
are edible, taste like pear, but is much less dense than a pear when ripe,
more like melon in texture.
