no clue, but what a cool looking plant

That I think is a cactus over which I have spent quite a few hours at cactusguide.com but no luck. I get side tracked into reading some thread or the other.

Senecio stapeliaeformis?

Senecio and I have been thinking it was a cactus? Well a cactus is a succulent while all succulents are not cactus. ID'd two more at that site which means the guys and galls on the threads and who should be experts, are not experts.
Thank you Janet .

It took me a while to find, but I knew it wasn't a cactus. Plants can be confusing when they vary so much within a genus.

I think you should start giving me lessons.

First, if it has a flower, then check what type of flower it is. In this case it had similarities to a daisy type flower which suggests Asteraceae.

I've just checked on the Plant List, the spelling should be Senecio stapeliiformis and that is a synonym of Kleinia stapeliiformis.

I see your plant has already been added under the correct name!

Yes it has been added, as to the misspelling Zuzu has corrected me . The short story behind it is on the plant database forum
Thank you Janet hang around, I might be keeping this forum busy.
