This plant was given to me a single 18 inch post plant. Planted outdoors on an east facing wall in zone 10b… Palm Springs area. It grew to this height in 8 years. It is extremely heavy and I am
Concerned it may topple and damage the solid brick fireplace. This plant does not flower. I was told that when it was gifted to me.

It is a *Euphorbia Ingens*. They can lose limbs when drought-stressed but you can trim it to prevent it being too top heavy. The main trunk tends to stay pretty strong.
Be careful if you cut into it as the latex sap is a skin irritant and can cause blindness.
Euphorbia will flower, they are usually small and yellow to green flowers but it does flower.
