That's what I thought also. Except the leaves are so tightly packed and curled. What are your thoughts?

It could be they are curled because they were packaged tightly for transport. But you are right they do look curled quite a bit. May be wait for a few days to see if they straighten out.

It looks like a Privet that Costa Farms sells to the big box stores.

Looks like you are right. I just looked up their website and it seems to be spot on.

I agree --- privet (Ligustrum).

It's a Fukien tea...you can tell

by rubbing your fingers in both directions on the leaves. One way will feel like sand paper and gritty. This plant dies very easy and needs good lighting. Remove the rocks and replant in a good bonsai mix if possible. Do it once you have read about this tropical plant. I am about 99% sure this is not a privet. It's a Fukien tea.

Though now that I look at it more, it could be a privet lol. It's one of the two but check the leaves.

Definitely a privet - even Justin from the source also agrees. They make good bonsai although I never tried one.
