    Dry fruits remind Camellia family, leaves are opposite as in Buxus family.

    Buxus bodinieri. There are Polyspora axillaris in that bed though.

    Thank you. Good to know, to me these fruits look exactly like pseudocamellia fruits

    How far is Polyspora axillaris from Buxus bodinieri? There is Camellia without label, can they look very the same? Did Polyspora axillaris have flower this spring?
