Hedging plant or shrub with grey foliage and small sweet smelling bell-like flowers in winter months. Can anyone name it please?

I must be losing it, Penny. I could have sworn that you said that the flowers were blue, in the original post. I should probably start reading everything twice, now! :/

Osmanthus maybe, but not sure when flowers

Hi Everyone, I am unexpectedly away for a week. I will try to get a photo of the shrub/hedging plant when I return. Not sure which post you are referring to, Tug. Don't think I've asked this before, although I'm probably scatty enough! No, not osmanthus, Daylily, I know that one, but will look up eleagnus ebbingei. If it isn't that I'll try to get a photo!

Sorry, Penny! No previous question was necessary--my faint, forlorn hope was that you had accidentally said blue when you first posted the question, and then edited it out. Not so, apparently! Ah, well, I'm going to miss my mind! ;P

Hi Tug, join the club! My mind goes walkabout quite often these days, worry not!
Thanks Pope dot, you are spot on! Now I know what to look for online.
