After a quick search for "Crasula ovata" I'd say yes, that's exactly
what it is. It's about 4' tall and the "trunk" is about 3 inches diameter.

That's a good size for one in a pot.

I checked my Sunset book to see what they said, the plant can be used
outside where it does freeze, but very lightly, like here. when we
get frost, it is the cold clear night kind, no real penetration. If
you keep the plant above 32F it should be fine.

I wondered if it was cold or long nights that triggered blooming, must
be day length. I have blossoms on a couple of mine already.
