What kind of flowers does it get, obviously it does not grow that way, it does not look like osmanthus delavayi, it has small leaves and is evergreen, it looks a lot like croakia, it might be evergreen where you live. Hope someone gives you and accurate label.

HI, Darren,
That looks very much like Pittosporum tenuifolium 'Silver Sheen' - one of the small-leaved pittosporum cultivars. I've seen some shaped/trimmed very much like yours.
All the best,

Hey now Kathy stop showing off. Ha ha.
I had asked a chap at work who is a keen gardener and he was struggling putting a name to it.
Cheers for that

LOL, Darren!
I have an ND in hort but am home most of the time with two small children - have to keep my skills honed ;)
Happy to help any time!
