We just moved to a house and are first time gardeners. Can anyone identify the bush?

I'll take a guess...looks like a citrus tree.

I'll check back to see what the others say.

Wishing you well

Greetings The green fruit reminds me of Tree tomato/Tamirillo. I dont know much about the plant its self,but the fruit is that beutifull deep red to orange colour,the shape is similar to that in your pic,the fruit on the left looks like it could be changing into one of these colours!. ..Goodluck in your new home! .

Looks like it might be a plum. I doubt citrus is growing in Colorado outdoors!
Try cutting open one of the fruits and see whether there is a single seed or multiple ones. That can help with id.

Okay, I think you may be close, the leaves threw me. But they do grow in your state..like weeds it said.

Below is a site to explain, hope it helps..silly me, Citrus won't grow in Colorado

Yesterday I was checking out tamarillo, and really thought that was it. In the pic posted , I could swear I can see serrated leaf edges, and in this pic...no serrated leaves. The fruits are VERY simular. They look yummy !! Full of vitamin C. That's got to be it.
