I have the same plant. All I know is that its a very rare succulent. Due to the fact that it flowers but only one person has seen it bloom with flower but did not take a picture. Which makes it a rare succulent.
All I know is that it takes like 5 to 7 years before it flowers and the flowers don't last long.
Mine is in a pot. It's 5 and a half years old so im waiting and hoping to see these rare flowers and take pictures.
It's been through alot. Chickens attacked it and plucked all its leaves but didn't eat them. Ugh - I was upset. But now its well protected.
Has grown back its new stems with leaves. I'm in California Riverside.

Euphorbia by: Jacki
I thought this plant could be the one known as Devils Backbone, when the stem is very crooked and zig zag. Botanically, it's known as Euphorbia tithymaloides.
On further investigation, it's something else. I can't find anything that shows the characteristic of those thorns emerging from near the leaves, although other Euphorbia have this characteristic.
This gives me the confidence that this is some kind of Euphorbia, but I can't pin it down more than that.
