Need help identifying tree

[Joseph_]

Does anyone know what type of tree this is? I'm in Austin, TX, but I don't believe this is a native tree.

That have to be a Ficus

Hmmm, the Ficus's I looked up on google have a completely different type of bark/trunk. Also these leaves have slightly jagged edges where as the Ficus ones I saw were smoother and more waxy.

It's been suggested to me that it could be some type of cherry tree, but there's a million different types of cherry trees and I can't find one that matches.

The way the leaves come off of the stem in a bloom-type pattern is what is making this really hard for me to identify and I couldn't find any cherry trees that had those type of blooming leaves.

Ficus has many looks. Gugi might be on the right track.

Leaves look kind of similar to Black Cherry, but the bark on the trunk is not.
I think its NOT a Cherry. But maybe there's one that has smooth bark. I don't know and cant find it in my tree atlas.

Perhaps a Cherry Laurel...

Prunus species have small glands at the leaf base or petiole. Take a close look there.

That is most defiantly not a ficus. Ficus have smaller rounder leaves. They also always have white bark and white sap. They get very tall and slendor.
