 |  Found this at my LFS
The LFS had it tagged as a Christmas Tree Anemone. It does look like an anemone but I can't find any information on it. Sorry the pictures are crappy I took them with my cell phone. Thanks for any help! ~JAMIE~   |

I found a reference in WetWebMedia.com, with pictures. It's a Branching Anemone.
It's in the anemone Family Actinodendronidae, such as Actinodendron plumosum or Actinodendron arboreum. | |
