Angelica

Dramatic, dome-shaped heads of plum-purple flowers on red-tinted stems in August and September and toothed, mid-green leaves. This striking, architectural plant is perfect for the back of a sunny, herbaceous or mixed border. Performing best in moist, fertile soil, the dark purple flowerheads are highly attractive to bees.Position: full or partial shadeSoil: deep, moist, fertile, loamy soilRate of growth: average Flowering period: August and September Flower colour: plum-purpleOther features: the flowers are highly attractive to beesHardiness: fully hardyGarden care:To prevent the plant from self-seeding remove seedheads before they have fully ripenedIt is worth keeping in mind that these plants are mainly biennial, so although they usually self-seed freely, the plant will only live for two years
