Trying to identify a shrub
Does this shrub look familiar to anyone? My friends have a large shrub in their garden. It's been grafted onto different root stock. The leaves are very small - no more than 1cm across and have serated white edges. It's so prettty and evergreen. I'd love one for the new garden we are planting
thank you

Thank you so much. I only seem to find bonsai versions available for sale. Maybe I'll have a go at propagating from my friends.
thanks again
