Name that tree!

This is what happens when you leave Mark and his dad alone with a chainsaw... 


To be fair they didn't get too carried away - one of the reasons we bought our house were the lovely trees in the backyard - a big Peppermint, two nice Banksias, a scruffy looking Tuart and some other miscellaneous Australian trees.. 
Now it's cleared it looks loads better but still nice and shady.

Here's a test for any green-fingered Antipodeans out there - what is this tree? -



It had small pink flowers a couple of months ago and now has those funny little nut... things. 
Any ideas?

  1. Why do men go crazy when they have a chainsaw or saw in their hands. My dad is the same. Not sure what the tree is but the look like paw paw or is it papaya? xo
