   I think A. franchetii is a good guess. I don't have any experience of   
   it, but there are other pictures of it that look very much like the   
   ones in your picture.   
   I know A. spissa a bit better, and I think it should have been more   
   greyish on the stem. But they vary a lot, and these two species are   
   closely related, so I imagine that there also can exist intermediate   
   forms.
