It looks to me like a Euphorbia suzannae. Be careful of the sap if you take off cuttings and the sap is white. Wash your hand right away. Norma

Norma,
thank you :-)
I knew that you would respond :-)
you always have the answer :-)

I did a google search and found some pictures. They look like mine.

Is the sap poisenous? I did not find infos regarding the sap.

thanks

It could irritate your skin. It can really cause trouble with your eyes, and mouth. Wash hands with soap, or milk, flush your eyes with milk or Aeonium lindlyii should you have an accident. Make sure the rest of the forum agrees with the name, nothing is written in stone. This species is not my specialty. Norma

thanks,

I will be careful. If an accident happend I will use milk have plenty of that one (dairy farm), since I have no idea what Aeonium lindlyii is.

All plants flower or have spores. It is not related to Stapla or any family member. It is a Euphorbia, if I'm correct. Now, did I respond to all of your questions? Norma

Norma,
yes you did :-)

thanks a lot
