I don't know if this pic is good enough but does anyone know which type
of olive this is? All we know is it's an olive!

It looks like the usual Olea europaea to me.

see http://www.bigplantnursery.co.uk/olive_cultivars.html

There are a couple of dwarf varieties as well that I have come across

We have - or had - the 'usual' ones. This isn't it. It could be a dwarf
- bit early to tell. It's around 4' now.
That's to big for the dwarf ones.
What makes it different?

The leaf. Ray says he's had it for several years and that it was given
to him as an unusual olive. I'm suspicious that it's an olive but what
do I know?! Here's a closer pic of the leaf. It's a bit myrtle like
but the overall growth is nothing like a myrtle.
