Wow thank you all so much for your helpful and kind words of advice.
The leaves did not produce a white liquid so I'm pretty sure it is a Serissa Foetida, thanks Heckter (Repotter) for spotting that, i've had a look at some other Serissa trees and I'm really excited about it flowering!!! From the image can anyone see if i need to prune it in any way? Should i aim for symmetry? or let it go where it wants to? |

I'm with you on Serrissa but not completely sold, I have several but something looks different in the pic's.
Anyway they take quite well to the clip and grow method, they don't wire well.

Maybe a species in the ligustrum genus?
