Angelica Holy Ghost

A versatile age old culinary and medicinal plant with a pleasant mild licorice flavour. Native to Northern Europe, its young leaves can be used in salads, its stems peeled and eaten like celery, its seeds steeped for teas and the root for making a decent gin.

Being biennial, the first year a well branched plant forms, the second year an umbel flower head sets for the bees and beneficial insects to enjoy.

Commonly known as angelica, garden angelica, wild celery and Norwegian angelica.
