     Thank you. I can’t grow Angelica in the cottage garden, but the wild species is all over the headland. I suspect the garden is too dry. I think it is lovely statuesque, architectural plant and the seed heads are as fascinating as the flowers.

     I think so! Wonder what the collective name for a patch of umbelliferas is?

       I’m sure you could come up with something appropriate – definitely an umbelliferation…;)

         Thanks, they are very stately and deserve a collective noun.

   Those are truly beautiful (and I know the collective name. It’s a Sneeze of Umbellifers, or that could just be me reacting to my wild carrot forest)…

     A sneeze it is- far more imaginative than anything I’d thought of; although I quite like arcade.
