Angelica herb grows as a sturdy biennial or brief perennial, typically blooming in its second or third year. The plant often dies after flowering. Ancient scholars deemed it a key medicinal herb, and it remains widely used across Europe for both health benefits and its pleasant scent and taste. The plant itself reaches about 3 feet, while its flower stem can grow over 6 feet tall. Blossoms form large, round clusters of small, yellow to green flowers. Though the impressive, architectural flower heads are eye-catching, the tiny blooms aren't particularly showy, but that's not their main purpose.
