By the look of it I would suggest a Euphorbia.

To fill out thye bottom, would probably entail decapitating it. You could then root the top section, to give an additional plant.

I forgot to say that with something like 2000 species, I can't help with specific ID.

A quick check as to genus, would be by cutting one of gthe growths or making avery small cut into the flesh.

If as I suspect, it is a Euphorbia, it will bleed a white sticky latex. This is caustic.

Mind the sap if you start chopping.

I put a tiny slice in a leaf. A milky sap does come out. Janice

Euphorbia bougheyi?

I think that’s it. (Jay 6a Chicago) Thanks everyone.

You were given the same name yesterday. Double posting doesn’t improve your response since mostly the same people will read it, and as in this case, you’ll get the same answers. Also it causes confusion having parallel threads on the same topic. Peoples’ time is wasted by repeating information.

I never saw a duplicate and I did my own research.

It was suggested to me to repost on the forum, (name that plant). I wasn’t trying to improve my chances but following the suggestion of a “nice” forum member. My time was wasted explaining myself when I’m only following a sugggestion. Thanks much to all who did help.

Never mind milney. Floral got upset because you thanked Jay while floral gave right answer first 🙃

Oh .. better fix that mistake then.

If tsuga had written 'duplicate post' instead of 'other post', I might have noticed, and whoever told milney to come over here, should have jumped in and told them not to bother because they already had the correct ID. What happened to common sense and thoughtfulness?

All that aside, to the OP Milney, pls remember to protect yourself from the White Sap while handling this plant. Depending on the Euph type, some MAY cause irritation to the Skin &/or especially the Eyes. I've grown 3 or 4 kinds of Euphs for yrs. w/ no problem, but some are known to be trouble, I think E. tirucalli (Firesticks) may be one that has sap known to cause skin / eye problems.

No, I'm not exaggerating about this risk & Better to be Safe than Sorry.

Pls wear gloves if you're cutting the plant & definitely some Eye Protection, Glasses, Sunglasses or actual Goggles.

ALL euphorbias produce that milky sap - latex - and all can cause irritation to any mucus membranes to varying degrees. And if one is sensitive to it, it can cause a skin reaction/rash as well (like a latex allergy or latex poisoning). The reactions are very individualized but it is best to take precautions if you are not familiar with working with this genus and know how the plant might affect you. Protection of your face (eyes, nose and mouth) is of primary concern.

Thanks for the ”be careful” advice. I brought it in the house yesterday. The temperatures are dropping at night now. I didn’t wear goves but I was careful. It’s getting to the size where it’s awkward to handle. Next time I’ll wear gloves. That milky stuff comes out of my rubber plants too. Thanks again.
