Could be a rosmarinifolia variant, there are a few named varieties. Should be reasonably hardy, but give it a very well-drained mix, and good air circulation - they cark it from fungal infections very easily if things get dank.

Looks like it could be a great little tree!
I'd give it a little clean, take out all the dead stuff, the weakest of any bar-branches (directly opposite branches), dead or dying leaves to open it up a little. Then you get to appreciate it more and you'll find it will reveal itself to you!
I've been wondering about Grevilleas as bonsai for a little bit...
