Maybe a look at the pic might be helpful! Possibly it is an evergreen? :-)

It might be a eucalyptus, with it branch form and growth habit.
Any chance of a close up photo?

looks like oleraia, but a close up would be more helpful, is it near the sea, if so olearia thrive and turn into fine trees near sea,

+1 looks like a eucalyptus which is evergreen.
Plus it's an amazing tree to be able to produce a tree from a leaf.

The mottled bark does look like eucalyptus.

Think it should be "Leaf-producing Trees already". The dash makes it!!

Eats, Shoots and Leaves...a funny book on stuff like that!
