You're right. They are similar to Euphorbia but this one is Cereus.

Thanks, I just found this site of Disneyland's plants and they say it's Cereus sp. Check out these sites and tell me what you think: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cereus http://www.plantsofdisneyland.com/disneyland-plants-trees-flowers-landscaping-books-plant-description.cfm?recordID=2631731&plantpic=2631731.jpg

This is a Euphorbia. Reminds me of E. trigona, which I have in my indoor plant collection but the ridges near the ribs are throwing me off.
