Angelica archangelica
 European ANGELICA

Apiaceae

As a bit of an aperitif the seeds are very effective at settling an upset stomach after eating something that maybe you should not have eaten.

It does in part shade and although it is a short lived perennial it does not look wonderful during winter.

The leaves add an interesting tang to salads and stew well if you are making Rosella Jam or Marmalade.

It will grow up to 1.8 metres in the garden but it does not like to dry out.

In the garden it will self seed easily especially in part shade but as it seeds, it dies, so prepare the garden around the plant for 'seed fall, as soon as it comes into flower.
