True - it obviously wasn't Myrrhis, in several grounds.
Uon checking, there ARE some of the native Umbelliferae with
palmate leaves at the end of their stalks - Sanicula and
Astrantia - but it obviously isn't either, and I think that
your diagnosis is right.
Generally, however, that's not an Umbelliferae pattern, and I
should have looked more closely.
