hello, I think it's Cherry Laurel

I think not. The leaves are radial, not alternate, and I couldn't detect any
almond or black cherry smell from crushing the leaves. The tiny green
flowerlets are bunched in close to each branch and under the crown.
Certainly not a tree, either. Lot of bare bark between leaves and base,
though.

Does seem laurel-like to me, but the radial leaves are unlike any laurel
I've been able to see pictures of.
