Osmanthus heterophyllus variegatus

I am about to commit to buying this plant. The website says "normal growth": should I believe it? My other osmanthus Burkwoodi is beautiful now but it took a long time to grow. What do you think?
Other type of osmanthus on sale on same site say "slow growth". As always thank you in advance.

    @coccinella, I think it's slow growth. Mine's been in a raised terrace bed for at least 15 years and is still only about a metre high, although I have started to trim it slightly each year as I don't want it to grow much taller. I love it.
