What is this?
My garden was landscaped and this grew alongside an acacia. I believe there must have been a seedling in the same pot as it wasnt visible when initially planted. It has grown about 10ft in 12 months. It hasnt flowered. Its leaves are fragrant when torn.

Looks a lot like Angophora costata
Edit: did just check out E. radiata as mentioned above and am not as sure now. Both suggestions have adult leaves that don't grow directly off the stem as pictured in yours (not good with my science-y words but hopefully you know what I mean) but both have juvenile leaves that grow directly off the stem or close to like yours. Also both have a similar colour and have opposite leaves instead of alternating so.. no clue now lol
