Identify the Mystery Plant: Solved!

We have a mystery plant.

Be the first to identify this plant correctly and win a 1 gallon* plant at Western Hills Nursery.

This plant is in the garden at Western Hills Nursery and we do not know what it is. It is currently blooming with green cup shaped flowers on stalks that resemble Angelica. As far as we can tell it is not a Hellebore or Euphorbia. The foliage grows about 2 feet tall, the blooms extending past that. This specimen is about 4 feet in diameter.

Mystery Plant Identified!
Ed Bowen of Opus in Little Compton, RI has identified our plant as Mathiasella bupleurioides. Are we all agreed? Now how about tips on propagation. Thanks Ed!
