Need help with this Plant ID

7 years ago
last modified: 7 years ago

Hi all, I've been given a sample of a plant growing in a pot and it is self sown or helped along by a bird.

I don't have any other information apart from this one cutting measuring around 2 feet in length, no information on flowers, fruit etc. It is growing in Sydney, Australia - mild temperate to subtropical climate. It looks very familiar but I can't pin it down.

I can see that it has alternate leaves, some have wavy entire margins. It is unlikely to be deciduous. Prominent lenticels on a dark brown / red stem which does display some "zig-zagging". No oil glands on leaves, no scent when crushed. Younger stems are reddish in colour.

I was considering Geijera salicifolia var. latifolia or even one of the Hymenosporums however those plants just don't sit right.

Anyone know this one ?

Thanks

PS: For some reason 2 other pics did not upload successfully
