Question Please, ID this tropical tree.

Hello! I have this little tree that i collected from the wildest part of my Family's Lands (Northern Mountains of Puerto Rico). I have cultivated it for the last 4 years and have made an extense research looking for the ID of this tree. Still, remains unknown for me. I think it must be a native tree, since i have found several of these trees growing in the wild, and have managed really well to grow and develop under the dense vegetation in the wild (Tropical Rain Forest).

Can anybody ID it, or maybe give me some opinions? Any help is very welcome.

Needless to say that i would like ot train it as a Bonsai

Here are the pictures:
















Thank you very much,

Hello! Thanks for your reply!

Thanks to the help of members of other forum i found out that my tree belongs to the genus
Casearia. With the genus name i made more research and i think that it may be C. decandra, or C.
ulmifolia. Now i have to wait that my tree produce fruits and then i can have a better ID. I will
post the pictures of the fruits as soon as i get them, if i ever get them

Cheers,

Jorge Joel...
