Ron, My bush is not viburnum tinus. It is an evergreen with no flowers. I looked up viburnum tinus. It has white flowers. Thanks again. Mercedes
Your specimen is not flowering. That does not mean it is not V. tinus. There are no plants that reproduce themselves from seed that never flower. Snip a shoot from yours and take it to a collection, such as VanDusen or UBC Botanical Garden, or a garden center and hold it up next to some V. tinus there - keeping in mind that several forms may be present in any given location, so that you may have to try a few to get a match of carbon copy exactness (the species resemblance should be apparent anyway, but you didn't get that out of your web search, so...). It could be a commonly offered cultivar that you will find right away, or a slightly different one.
I'm not convinced it is Viburnum tinus - something isn't quite right about it, the leaves a bit too wavy and bright glossy pale green, and too long-pointed at the apex. Not sure what it is, though.
