My small fruit tree orchard

Here’s info about Linh (described here as the “mother tree”):

The mother tree is growing at my friend’s sister’s house in Northern California. I’m not sure what the average winter lows are, but from what I understand the tree is very large and heavily productive. We know that it’s var. drymifolia based off its characteristics and that of its seedlings (thin skin, anise scented leaves, good hardiness), but we don’t know if it was originally a seedling or a grafted tree as it was already well established on the property before the current owner acquired it. The skin is very thin and I have eaten many of them without pealing or only partially peeled. The texture is soft, but not mushy so it makes good avocado salads when chopped up since the pieces hold their shape.

Here are the fruit from the mother tree:
