Is this an Ixora plant?

It made me think of Ardisia elliptica:
Shoebutton Ardisia (Ardisia elliptica)

And another plant I don't know very well, Photinia. This is one of many represented in the database: Red-Tipped Photinia (Photinia 'Fraseri')

Very possibly an Ixora plant. If it blooms you will know for sure. I have never seen one grown as a house plant. You can compare with the photo below growing in my garden. There are a few different species. The one in the photo below is Ixora coccinea. You might be able to grow it outside but i think the general zones are 10 and 11.

That Ixora has distinctly opposite leaves, Photinia and Ardisia do not. What is the leaf arrangement on the plant in question?

Thank to all of you I wanted to believe it was an Ixora but porkpal has given me food for thought. I would be inclined to believe it is a shoebutton ardisia elliptica.

This plant was given to me in the container it is in. I am going to transplant it to the garden and wait for it to bloom.

Thanks again, I really appreciate it.

My eyesight isn't the greatest but I think I see alternate leaf arrangement on one stem of the plant in question, which would rule out Ixora. It looks a lot like Shoebutton Ardisia which along with A. crenata is listed as a Category I non-native invasive and prohibited here in Florida. Until you can get an exact identification I'd advise against planting it in the garden.

Thanks plantladylin I will have to get rid of it. I am now into native plants.
