There are numerous species of naturally occuring Elaeocarpus in the area disregarding the possibility of planted specimens in botanic gardens. Need photos of leaves, bark, habit of plant to make a further ID.

Yeah.
The specific of these fruits and the dropped old characteristic–form and red-coloured leaves on the ground, considered together do fairly fit _Elaeocarpus grandis_ and unlikely any other _Elaeocarpus_ spp.,
yet not quite disproving enough all the other plausible species identification candidates to confirm this sighting as _Elaeocarpus grandis_ .
