Ah,just saw your post. Why doesnt DG say somebody made a remark to a photo?

No,Its just that one. Is it the size or compactness that makes you wonder PB?..There are others posted that look similar..just greener.

E mammillaris is a skinny plant and tends to grow leggy and tall, not short,fat and closely clumped like this. It is obviously a related Euphorbia, but i seriously doubt it is mammillaris

It doesn't look any different then Joans photos.other then more light suntanned. It could be another species..Just the best and closest I could find. Most likely Bob,they also are labeled by Nursery's if they resemble E.mammillaris.

Well, it certainly is an atypical look, but since I can't get closer I guess that will have to do for now.

I could accept this as a well grown Euphorbia mammillaris.
