Automatic identification via PlantNet summary
Most likely match: Acer negundo L.
Beep, boop
I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.
Out of these I'd say pear is most likely, possibly a crab apple or plum also so not narrowing it down much! It's 100% not an Acer at least!
That's the fruit developing post-flowering, not a budding flower btw, so go back to see how it develops and you should get a pretty good id soon. I don't think plum fruits would look like that and crab apples aren't typically so long stalked and more often in bunches, but I wouldn't expect any plum/pear/apple to be so long stalked eitger, so perhaps a variety or species I'm not familiar with! Don't know anything about Brazilian plum or mountain date though.
The only reason I'm not sure if you're right is because I've been taking care of this site for years and never saw any fully developed fruits but this year I'll keep an eye out for them when they fully develop because these got planted decades ago and nobody in the DOT knows what species they are.
Ty for your time.
