Default one for you naturelovers lol

I have a fruit in my garden its round and green when its on the tree ,the leaves are large oval and dull acqua green when it falls off the tree it splits open into a yellow star fish shape with a few red seeds in the centre ...I think the plant grows on other trees. It is the shape of star annise ...anyone any idea what it is ...is it useful for anything(theres not much flesh in it) can you dry it in some way for decorative purposes
