    It reminds me of something blueberry-ish. Try checking in the Subfamily Vaccinioideae. Posted 3 years ago

      That looks like a great starting point. Disterigma empetrifolium is not a full match but an example of something similar. Thanks. Posted 3 years ago

            Looks more triangular, less round? Posted 3 years ago

              Yes...I don't think it's a match, but just thought the leaves growing upwards on the branches like that was similar. It might be a similar species/genus. Posted 3 years ago
