Tree ID in SE Florida

hockeykitty09 · 15th May 2009, 06:31 AM

This tree is in the backyard of my childhood home. I'd like to plant one on my new home, but my parents have no idea what kind of tree this is. All they could tell me was it's a 'fast growing shade tree that's not a member of the ficus family'. It doesn't have any obvious fruit or blooms.

Thanks in advance for your help!
