    At my mom's house. Just trying to figure out if this is actually a Camphor Tree, as I've been told. When you break off a leaf... it does smell like camphor.

    I'm not certain that's it. This tree does NOT have the following:
    # The fruit looks like a ball with a conical hat. It starts out red and then turns black. The flowers are tiny and white.
