It is a bit hard to tell from the photo but in Euphorbia lathyrus the leaves are in opposite pairs with each set of subsequent leaves offset at 90 degrees from each other, while in oblongata the leaves are alternate and not in pairs offset to each other

Think you're right. I'll be heading back up there in a few days and can get a better picture. Cheers
