OK this is a big ask as I only have a few bits in a bunch of flowers Liz was given so no overall size or any idea what the flowers may be like!
Leaves are hard/leathery and just slightly aromatic if rubbed

Pistacia lentiscus.
And don't ask how long it took to find it!

Many thanks, Liz is very impressed! I had never heard of the Mastic tree and had no idea what a Pistacio would look like never mind a relative. I can only hope you had some sleep :)

Charlie,
Did you use it for cuttings? And did they take?
I have a branch of it now and was thinking of trying.

Yes but no luck this end, but by the time I tried I expect it had been cut a fair while, good foliage plant though. I am sort of pleased it died as its these unplanned plants that I end up having to find space for that cause the most headaches, I just don't seem to be able to let things die!
