I was actually going by your photos. To my eye seems the male has more stamen where as the female seems to have a bulbous center. What do you think?

Yep, multiple little stamens covered in yellow pollen on the male, a single big bulb on the female with no yellow.

Cheers.

I went to ray nescis and picked up 3 girls there were 6 there altogether and Ray took the last male to keep for safe keeping.

I got now 4 girls 1 boy ready for some slip potting and fert.

Theres not much online information on the trees.
