Update: It is possible that the subject tree/shrub is Cotoneaster bullatus (syn Cotoneaster rehderi) with a zone rating of 6-8 in the RD A-Z Encyclopedia of Garden Plants. There is a specimen.... about ten miles away.... for me to compare form and fruit. However, the specimen is located in a park rated as the 'banana belt' of St. John's NL, at least a zone 6 - I figure my garden is a zone 5a. Note: the new leaves on mine show red/purple. It's the coarse veining in the description that has me scratching my head a bit. Pic of fruit of Cotoneaster bullatus from Internet is attached.
