I though it to be Bay leaf but not sure. It is more like a little tree than a bush but I guess you could categorize it as a bush... |

Growing in the wild or in a garden? Ever seen the flowers? How tall, wide? |

It looks a little like Privot,I dont know if you have it there?. It can also have a sweet scent. It is considered noxious here,if allowed it will grow as a tree,the leaves will change colour from all green to green-red,the flowers are creamy-white and quite dainty,and grow in small clusters from each stem!..This is a young privot that will soon be getting the chop,its a shame really because it does make a good gap filler!...And leaves look pretty with the flowers..
