Re: any idea what this is?
Seeing that you live in the tropics, it could be Carissa macrocarpa. Does it have double thorns or look like it had them and have been cut off? Sometimes known as Natal Plum. See link https://www.google.com.au/search?q=cari ... mQXP3ICYAw

Re: any idea what this is?
I think that you may find it is not of tropical origin - possibly a temperate plant such as an Ilex. If you want to be sure bring it along to Cairns bonsai club - see info elsewhere on this site. Ash
