Kembu Holly-leaf Tea Olive. This cultivar has a variegation somewhat similar to 'Variegatus', but the leaves are narrower and slightly contorted. The green area in the center of the leaf is more gray-green. It is also a slower grower, and I think will mature as a much smaller plant ((Dirr thinks more as a 4-5 ft. size). The texture is distinctly finer than 'Variegatus' also, and it will produce the same white fragrant flowers of the species. Otherwise, it has the same growth requirements as the species. With adequate moisture, it will do well in sun or shade. The photo is courtesy of Mike Chelednik.
