Angelica gigas

Angelica gigas, which came to our shores from Korea, has broad, fingered foliage and deep reddish purple stems. This rich coloration extends to the 6-8" broad umbels of minute flowers that cap 5-6' plants, hence its value as a dramatic accent in the garden. Effective from the middle of August, when the flowers begin to open, until the seed heads ripen toward the end of September.

Angelica is a genus of 50 species hails from all over the Northern Hemisphere and contains a handful of ornamental herbs and one striking subject for the perennial border. It is adaptable as to culture, growing in full sun or partial shade and average soil. In our gardens, it has biennial tendencies and is generally short-lived, but plentiful seedlings make for a perennial display that is in a class by itself.

HOW PLANTS ARE SHIPPED

The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.

We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone. We also ship a wide range of containers and planters, tools, supplies, fertilizers, garden wear, garden decor items, as well as indoor decorations like wreaths and dried bouquets when available.
