    A lot of the euphorbias have green flowers, especially E. Characias var. Characias, but there are others.
    Some of the Hellibores are green and I think there are even green roses.

    It would probably be worth Googling 'green flowers', I think there are quite a lot out there.

    Hi clueless ...

    How about Hacquetia epipactis ... I've always thought them quite bizarre ....

    Also alchomilla mollis; not bold green flowers but soft and yellowy green. It will also grow in shady areas.
