Crossbreed coral cacti

I have a coral cacti which has very suddenly grown multiple big green leaves which are now bigger than the cacti itself and it just seems to be continuing to grow! Does anyone know what this is as I haven’t found anything online.. and how far will it go?!

IIRC coral cacti really aren't cacti but are two different Euphorbia plants grafted together. Sometimes the rootstock grows and that is probably what you are seeing. However, showing us a picture would help us be sure.
