Got this at club plant sale table. Nobody wanted it so I got it for free.
Label said Euphorbia pseudoglubosa but not certain if it is correct.
None of the pictures I see online have this trailing look.
Pot is 4 inches.
Help is appreciated.

Perhaps if it was left in dark place for a few years... so horribly stretched (etiolated) that all semblance of the original plant has been lost... I would grow this in full sun (though gradually get it out there) and see if new growth comes out a lot more characteristic. Whatever it is, it is a sad looking plant alright.

Compare it with Euphorbia globosa (rather than pseudoglobosa) on this website: http://www.euphorbia.de/fotoabc.htm
It sure is looking sad, but with the right conditions you might get it back into shape.

Thanks Palmbob and Maddy,
Gave it some water and sun and it looks better already.
