Saw a rather smart hedge put in by professional gardeners. Under the
laws
of 'gardeners license' I later borrowed some tiny clippings, which are
the

Could anyone identify this plant for me please? Many thanks.
It isn't that clear a picture, but could it be laurel?

Thanks for your response. I should have put a coin in to help identify the
size, since the leaves are very much smaller than most laurels I have ever
seen. The leaves are quite small with the biggest only being 30mm long and
12mm wide and most being a lot smaller than that. The hedge was about four
and half feet tall. I initially made me think it was some kind of
cotoneaster. Grateful for any further advice.
