Identify the plant plz

[monkeymusicallthetime]

Could you please help me to identify the tree?

It looks like a dwarf magnolia stellata. Does it have white flowers in spring?

I am unsure about the flowers but it has fruits that are eatable( I presume as it grows on allotment).

Can you describe the fruits please - are they berries or more of a hard fruit like an apple, pear or plum? I am wondering if it might be a variety of Medlar, although the leaves do not look quite right. If so, the fruit is very distinctive and colloquially known as a 'dog's arse', with good reason when you see them!

Hopefully MereDintOfPandiculation, who is exceptionally knowledgeable and good at identifying things, will saunter along soon!

The fruit looks more like a plum, but the colour is different that is the best picture of the fruit I have.

Plum or damson? Leaves seem too pale though.

Let the fruit ripen until soft. It could be a yellow plum or it could change colour when it ripens more.

Nothing like our plum tree. Is that branch close to the ground?

Have the branches thorny spikey bits?

Might it be this? If so it is a Persimmon.

Yellow egg plum? www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/plum/yellow-egg-plum-trees.htm

#Iwascompletelywrong

@LuluJakey1 the picture is misleading as the branch is not too close to the ground, but the tree looks young.

As I look at the pictures, It looks more like a yellow egg plum, but the fruits are not as yellow.

Thank you all for the input.

Me too @ElizabethinherGermanGarden, definately NOT a Medlar - I failed to spot the fruit in the OP's original picture! Not entirely sure what it is, but certainly looks like a Prunus species of some kind - intrigued now!

I wouldn't go as far as Prunus but definitely rose family. It would help to see a fruit split in half, either now or when it's ripe. Does it have a single stone inside?

I think looking at the leaves and the shape and colour of the fruit it is identical to that picture of the Persimmon.

But persimmon is unlikely on an allotment - it usually needs a greenhouse in the UK unless you have a very warm spot outside.
