Re: need id on 2 stumps olive?
you could be right, but it could also be something like a lemon scented tee tree. I would reduce the foliage by 50 % if you just dug them today.

Re: need id on 2 stumps olive?
This does not look like European olive - Olea europaea which usually has white bark at this age and slightly wider, more grey leaves. It could be African olive (Olea europaea subspecies cuspidata)which I believe is an invasive weed in the Sydney basin.
