Mystery plant identified!

After a bit of research on the good old internet, I found out that the mystery plant is a Shoo-Fly plant, or Nicandra physalodes, native to Peru.

See this link for more info and this one for a little bit about it's value as a companion plant.

    Not sure if I'll be planting it though, since it is poisonous (we intend to get our own sheep) and also self-seeds prolifically!
