I have something quite similar, except it is more reddish brown. The store I bought it from (Big Al,s) called it baby leather, but after extensive posting of pictures, it was identified as "Encrusting Colt", or Cladiella sp.:mrgreen:
That picture looks a lot like my Colt when the polyps are retracted, but it is very brown and fuzzy when they're out, so maybe not a good comparison.

Looks like a very fat Kenya tree to me. Have you felt the stalks? Kenya Trees feel just like a cat's tongue, kinda gritty.
