ANGELICA Gigas

Angelica gigas

Height x Spread: 120cm x 60cm 

Quite the statement plant, the flowering season for this Angelica is late summer, when it produces wonderful spherical, ruby red flower heads, on elegant dark red stems, above large deeply cut green leaves.

It is a biennial and as such you get basal growth in the first year and then flowers in the second year, after which the plant dies but produces seed. It is a tall plant and is best planted towards the middle or back of a border. The flowers attract a multitude of pollinators!
