Angelica (Angelica archangelica) is a plant from the Apiaceae family. It is biennial; meaning during it's first year it only grows leaves before having most of it's growth in it's second year - where it can reach up to two metres in height. Angelicas form numerous small serrated leaves and greenish yellow flowers which grow in dense globular umbels, blossoming in July before leaving yellow oblong fruits.

Angelica favours damp soil which is close to water, and naturally grows in Denmark, Finland, Greenland, Norway, Sweeden, Iceland and the Faroe Islands.
