    Thanks Growin for suggestion. It, however, lacks the slender pedicel of both Osmanthus burkwoodii or even O. fragrans, has apparantly longer and broader corolla tube and consistently 5-corolla lobes.

    I'd imagine it's related, though.

    My other web forum suggests Acokanthera oblongifolia (syn: Casissa oblongifolia). Looks very close
