A native to Mexico and was discovered only in 1954. It bears umbelliferous flowerheads, from which incredible, nodding, jade-green, bracts appear from April to June. These gradually turn pink and persist well into autumn offering wonderful interest in a mixed border. Mathiasella bupleuroides Green Dream thrives in moist but well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. It may need protection from the harshest winter frosts. The flowers are great for cutting and using fresh or dried.
