Hi Sparhawk wavey
Does your plant have any spines or thorns?
I think it looks like a Pachypodium,
they do have spines, but I can't tell if your plant does. Duh

Hi Zuzu,

Yes it does have some very soft thorns protruding from the center.... bit(!).

I have looked up pictures of the Pachypodium on Google and they seem a bit more cactus like than this one, but maybe it's in an early stage of development?!
