Related to Ternstromiaceae, tea family.


Interesting.

Thank you for your suggestion *Ponnutheerthagiri Santhan* 

I have never heard of Ternstromiaceae before...forgive my ignorance.

I have looked it up and found this...."Trees and Shrubs online."

According to the link above they seems too have 5 petals and multiple 
stamens...I believe that this rules it out.
