Maybe you could post a picture of one and the tree? Then maybe we can help you identify it. Just a thought. :crazy

This might be useful. If you can identify the leaf, then you can figure out what the tree is.

If they keep mice away I could use a dozen or so. Never seen one in Florida. Where do they grow?
