Narrow-leaved Orangebark (Maytenus silvestris) is also known as Orange Bush and Orange Bark. It is a native shrub that is found growing in the Charles and Motee Rogers Bushland Reserve at Highfields and it flowers in spring and the fruit (shown below) is ripe in January-February. There are a few of these shrubs in fruit currently on the southern side of the reserve near the edges of the nature trail.
