My Escallonias have very slightly serrated leaves  which I can't see on the OP's pic.
More than one type @Silver surfer ?  Thanks in advance

This is original pic as posted by Sheila Allder   I have zoomed in and trimmed it.

 I used my camera to show it enlarged as it wouldn't let me copy it  from the forums.
Maybe this shows enough detail.
Inc green stigma. etc.
