Mystery plant no 2

Here are two photos of the same plant. I should be grateful if someone can identify it for me.  The leaves look a little like salvia, but nothing else does. 
Thank you.

    I'm probably completely wrong, but it kind of reminds me of Pyracantha.

    That looks like it might be a blueberry.  If you re-pot it (50cm+ is ideal) then make sure to use ericaceous compost.  If it is, there are no flowers showing so no fruit this year and it would benefit from the top being pinched-out to encourage those buds further down to grow and bush it out.  That also applies even if it's something else.  :)
    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    You could be right!  Thank you for making a suggestion.

    Thank you Bob; a blueberry! I do hope so.

    This plant has grown and I am going to repot it.  I am still not sure what it is but here are a couple of new photos.  The stem has little red buds, sorry it isn't in focus.  I haven't yet pinched out the top.
