This tree was planted by the birds under an oak tree. It is 3 feet tall and growing well, leaves are evergreen, glossy and not fuzzy.
Across the fence in next yard there are some magnolias but their leaves are much darker than this. Because of the color my yard guy said it's not a magnolia but he could be wrong. Not a pawpaw because leaves aren't fuzzy. I'm in zone 7/8 in South Carolina, near foothills of the Appalachians
