RE: What kind of tree is this..?
Well I should have added that my Forestry teacher said it was not a persimmon, and he now works for the State forestry department, so I dont think its a persimmon, but , all i had to show him was a twig, and dead leaf.
If i remember correctly the fruit is not always orange, seems like it was a greenish color for a while, i could be wrong though, thats why im asking,
It didnt bear any fruit last year due to a heavy frost i guess, so im going by memory.

Depends on the size of the blooms. Lots of small white flowers/clusters would be a callery... which I think it is.
A persimmon has a bloom almost like a dogwood.... Don't have many of them in my part of VA... lots of dogwoods.. few Persimmons.
