Diospyros virginiana
Tall trees that do not have very thick trunks. The fruit give you cottonmouth if they are not completely ripe. You have to wait until they fall off the tree after a slight shake of the branch to eat them. They have four telltale calyx-lobes at the base of the fruit where they attach to the branch.
