This plant was in the garden until I found it in mid-summer looking almost dead. All leaves were brown and dry, so I quickly dug it up and put it in a pot, watered it and it started to get some green shoots. I've chopped off the dead branches and leaves, and this is what I'm left with. I have no idea what species this is, if anyone is able identify it to species or even genus, I will be most appreciative!

Thank you all for the suggestions
After looking at some pictures of the species you have suggested, I think it is most likely a Syzygium.
Now here's to hoping I can turn it into something semi resembling a bonsai
