Angelica Almanac; Angelica takes 6 to 13 months to grow from seed to harvest, growing primarily upwards to a height of 3 feet, producing large umbels of yellow-green flowers. Angelica is not difficult to germinate, but may take several weeks. To improve germination rates and seedling viability, stratification and indoor starting are recommended. Angelica prefers partial shade to full sun, and grows better with light, well-drained soil or moist loam. Adaptable to varying light levels, but grows best in partial shade in proximity to water. Light-dependant germinator, so lightly tamp seeds into top surface of soil (1/4" or less deep) or cover lightly with a thin layer of soil. Flat can be placed outdoors as the alternating cool and warm temperatures will help promote germination. Do not place outside if expecting a fall or spring freeze. Instead the seeds can be placed into a refrigerator overnights and removed in the mornings to simulate this temperature cycle. During this stratification period, make sure seeds receive adequate water to prevent desiccation, but not so much as to promote fungus. After this period of stratification, seed flats can be brought indoors for warmer temperature to promote germination. With heat and moisture, seeds should begin germinating within 10 days. When plants reach height of 3-4", they are ready to be transplanted outside. Space plants at least 12" apart to allow for plant growth, and allow 36" between rows.
