Myristica fragrans. I get wild nutmegs of other species in the bush near my place. There is a fruiting domestic nutmeg in a park I know and I used to collect them from the ground and pluck ones with mace still on. Other people noticed the tree and I struggle to get any these days and might have to look for other trees.
It is common practice to graft a male branch onto female trees.
