I finally remembered to take a picture of this specimen for ID. I believe it is E. submammillaris, correct?
(Apologies for the not so awesome pictures)
Euphorbia submammillaris

Re: Euphorbia submammillaris
Looks more like E. enopla to me, although I'm not a Euphorbia expert.

Re: Euphorbia submammillaris
More likely to be plain old mammalaris, my understanding was submammalaris is more cushion forming though i'm not really too sure. It's one of the two.
it's not enopla/ferox/etc

Re: Euphorbia submammillaris
yep, it's certainly not enopla but either mammillaris or submammillaris.
I'm not sure about the differences but after what you said Mc Farland I checked euphorbia.de and it says that mammillaris grows like this: and submammillaris grows like this: So maybe when my plant grows bigger I can decide which species it is according to its growth habit.
