Mathiasella bupleuroides 'Green Dream' is a perennial plant of Mexican origin that deserves to be better known. This umbelliferous plant curiously resembles a stinking hellebore or even a euphorbia with its finely cut foliage topped with clusters of pendulous bell-shaped flowers in jade green with a black heart. They remain decorative for a long time and take on a beautiful pink hue at the end of the season. Moderately hardy, its stump is perennial in good growing conditions in not too cold climates. The spring flowering, which is quite early, appears more reliably in mild climates, when the plant retains its foliage in winter. In the garden, this beautiful exotic plant, which has not yet revealed all its secrets to rare plant enthusiasts, elegantly structures sunny to semi-shaded rockeries and borders.
Mathiasella bupleuroides 'Green Dream' belongs to the Apiaceae family (formerly Umbelliferae), just like wild carrot, parsley, and celery. Its wild ancestor was discovered by LR Stanford in 1949 in a mountainous region of northern Mexico, specifically on the east and south-facing slopes as well as at the summit of Pena Nevada in the state of Tamaulepis. 'Green Dream' is often listed as a cultivar, but it may simply be a particular form of the wild species. The available literature teaches us that this plant primarily requires very well-drained soil, whether it is occasionally very moist or conversely occasionally dry, with an acidic, neutral, or calcareous tendency. Its cold resistance is estimated at -8°C (17.6°F) at its lowest. It is advisable to protect the stump from frost, as well as from excessive humidity in winter.
Mathiasella bupleuroides 'Green Dream' is a large herbaceous plant, perennial through its slightly trailing stump. Its foliage persists in mild climates during winter, but becomes deciduous from -3°C (26.6°F). It takes a bit of time to establish, eventually forming a large, upright clump measuring an average of 90cm (35in) in all directions. Its branched stems bear large, slightly toothed, lobed, shiny leaves that turn bluish-green. Flowering begins in April. Floral stems rise, carrying large terminal umbels filled with tiny green flowers nestled in a cup composed of bracts similar to very bright green leaves. They turn pink over time, remaining decorative until autumn. Mathiasella bupleuroides is monoecious, meaning it bears separate male and female flowers. Male flowers have small petals, while female flowers are generally devoid of them. The different types of flowers are found in the corolla. Surprisingly tolerant of drought in shaded coastal gardens, this perennial appreciates a regular water supply, especially when planted in the sun.
Mathiasella bupleuroides 'Green Dream' thrives in a sunny border, a not too arid rockery, or a large border, as well as on the edge of woodland. This unique short-lived plant can be used like euphorbias and large hellebores (H. argutifolius, H. foetidus). It is a textural plant that pairs perfectly with tulips, acanthus, and peonies, for example.

Botanical data
Mathiasella bupleuroides should be planted in autumn or spring in very well-drained soil that is preferably not too dry in summer. It adapts to acidic, neutral, or limestone soils. Its stump fears very wet soils in winter, especially in case of severe frost. Plant it in full sun or partial shade. Plants grown in partial shade tolerate dry periods well once established. Water regularly during very dry weather. You can prune the flowers once they are no longer decorative and the dry stems at the end of winter. It takes a little while for the plant to establish itself. It seems that when the foliage persists in winter, it blooms more reliably. Protect the stump with a thick layer of mulch in winter in slightly cold regions (protection against cold but also against excessive humidity). It will regrow in spring after a short frost of around -8°C (17.6°F).

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

It will vary according to where you live:
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
