Can anyone identify this fruit-bearing tree?

Question

I found this fruit tree growing in a community garden and it looks oddly familiar although I can't quite pick it.

Definitely a tamarillo as stated in the comments.

It's granadine, or passion fruit. My mom had them in the garden in Mutare Zimbabwe.

No Passion Fruit. It is clearly a nightshade as you can tell by the fruit and leaves. Solanum spec. Maybe it is a kind of egg plant. http://www.prosisupermarket.com/admin/Product/White%20egg%20plant.jpg
