Love this... esp the fruits....
so august is when one can get both seeds and flowers coexisting...ie
middle of season for the plant....
MY QUESTION, Dr SINGH :
DOES this Angelica have the telltele swollen base of the new leaf
formation
(I donot know what the technical term id for it)
like the one I had shown for the Korean angelica ... I have seen the
same formation in the Angelica archeangelica, the usual western/north
american grown angelica...

This swollen leaf-sheath, a feature of the family Apiaceae, becomes more prominent in taller plants like Angelica, Heracleum, Ferula etc, and looks more swollen in the subtending leaf especially when inflorescence is about to emerge. The shortened leaf below the inflorescence would generally have a prominent leaf sheath, in comparison to leaf blade.
