This is at very nice nursery in the back of Waimanalo, Oahu. Hawaii. Cool how

it has kept its variegation even as a very mature fruiting tree.

John.

The owner said foxtail, but I thought it might be a hybrid also, Another thing is he said none of the fruit is not viable, 

so could be hybrid.   Bet it was more impressive when not so tall and you could enjoy the variegation.

In the first pic it looks like there is a baby off to the left which is also variegated unless this is something different, so maybe only a very few seeds are viable?
