thanks https://canberra.naturemapr.org/users/21083, we'll tackle and collect and bag all fruits; and yes it is a fruit (botanically) which is the structure that develops from an ovary and contains the seeds as opposed to the red structures ("cherry") of a native Cherry Ballart which is not a fruit but a swollen flower stalk, the botanical fruit is the hard tissue on the top; the word "exocarpos" means outside or external fruit.
