Big difference!!!

I am very pleased to find out the name of the tree growing in our yard. Just purchased a house approx. 15 miles from Hilo Hawaii and hav...Read Moree been wondering about this tree. I have seen one blossom early one morning and two hours later it was on the ground. I have collected the nuts from three pods after they fell to the ground, and now have thirty seedlings growing in pots. They took from 3 to 6 days to sprout. We average 180 inches of rain a year here and our parent tree is about 12 feet tall and 10 feet in diameter. I do not know the age of it but everything grows in shallow rocky soil here.
Thanks everyone for your excellent pictures.
