Found this fruiting in the back, and not sure what it is. Thought it was pitomba. Pretty sure it is a Eugenia, but who knows. Please share your best guesses.

1-cedar bay cherry(eugenia reinwardtiana)
2-eugenia calycina
3-other eugenia

Thanks Digi!
Very similar to e. reinwardtiana, that's probably it.
My kid tasted it, said it was not very flavorful, mildly sweet with no sour. Only one was ripe, next one is mine.

Yw,Yes i am 90% sure(because you know there are too many eugenias), i have 5 of these in the same 2 gallon pot for like 8 years.
Same leaves as mine.

Number one, yes. Also known as Australian Beach-Cherry.

Thanks Digi and Har. I am certain you are correct. Weird, because I thought about adding this variety to the collection, but never actually got one. Well, now it seems I did. lol
