Large biennial member of the carrot family commonly 1-2 m tall when flowering from July to September. Small, fragrant white to pale-lilac flowers born on thick bamboo-like stalks with purplish joints in an umbel (umbrella) formation. Leaves are pinnately compound and leaf-sheaths are enlarged. Leaflets are ovate, often lobed, and with toothed margins. Known to be a prolific seed producer.
Usually in open areas with damp soil including ditches, hedgerows, marshes, fields, and woodlands. Tolerant of full shade, full sunlight, and drought, not usually acid-tolerant. Can dominate disturbed habitats due to its prolific seed production and ability to shade out competitors. Strongly attractive to pollinators, leaving native species unattended. Otherwise not seen as food by local insects. The sap contains chemicals which can cause rashes and burns when in contact with human skin.
Was first introduced by French settlers in 1600’s or 1700’s.

Umbrella-like flower heads and leaf sheaths, can grow more than 2 m tall.
Cape Breton and Fredericton are the ground zero of Woodland angelica invasion in North America.
Promote the use of attractive native and non-invasive plants. If you identify woodland angelica on your property physically remove first year plants and cut the seed heads of second year plants to stop the spread. It is recommended to wear gloves, work on cloudy days, and wash thoroughly after handling to avoid burns and rashes. Do not compost or burn plant or plant parts, instead double bag them and let them rot in the sun before discarding. If you spot this invasive species, report the location to iNaturalist, or directly to the NSISC.

Mti huu ni wa aina ya Carrot, na kwa kawaida hufikia urefu wa mita 1 hadi 2 wakati wa maua kuanzia Julai hadi Septemba. Maua madogo yenye harufu nzuri ya rangi nyeupe hadi rangi ya manjano huchanua kwenye shina nene linalofanana na mianzi lenye viungo vyenye rangi ya zambarau katika umbel (kifuniko). Majani ni pinnately mchanganyiko na majani-sheaths ni kupanuliwa. Majani ni ya yai, mara nyingi huwa na vipande, na yana pembe zenye meno. Anajulikana kuwa mtayarishaji wa mbegu nyingi. Kwa kawaida katika maeneo ya wazi yenye udongo wenye unyevunyevu kutia ndani mitaro, miamba, mabwawa, mashamba, na misitu. Inaweza kuvumilia kivuli kamili, jua kamili, na ukame, kwa kawaida haiwezi kuvumilia asidi. Inaweza kutawala makazi yaliyovurugwa kwa sababu ya uzalishaji wake wa mbegu na uwezo wa kufunika washindani. Inavutia sana kwa wapiga-mti, na huacha spishi za asili zisizozingatiwa. Vinginevyo haionekani kuwa chakula kwa wadudu wa mahali hapo. Mchuzi huo una kemikali zinazoweza kusababisha maambukizo na kuchomwa moto zinapogusa ngozi ya binadamu. Mfano wa hii ilitengenezwa na wahamiaji wa Ufaransa katika karne ya 16 na 17. A malesuada neque sapien, id auctor leo vestibulum sit amet. Nullam dignissim luctus justo vitae pulvinar.

Maecenas scelerisque lacus eget neque laoreet, katika semper dolor rutrum. Mimea ya umbrella na majani ya majani yanaweza kukua kwa urefu wa mita mbili. Cape Breton na Fredericton ni mahali pa kwanza ambapo ndege aina ya Woodland angelica huvamia Amerika Kaskazini. Kukuza matumizi ya mimea ya kuvutia ya asili na isiyo ya uvamizi. Ikiwa unaona angeli ya misitu kwenye mali yako, ondoa mimea ya mwaka wa kwanza na kukata vichwa vya mbegu za mimea ya mwaka wa pili ili kuzuia kuenea. Inashauriwa kuvaa glavu, kufanya kazi siku zenye mawingu, na kuosha vizuri baada ya kushughulikia ili kuepuka kuchomwa na kuvuja. Usifanye mbolea au kuchoma mimea au sehemu za mimea, badala yake weka mifuko miwili na waache kuoza kwenye jua kabla ya kuitupa. Ikiwa utaona spishi hii ya uvamizi, ripoti eneo kwa iNaturalist, au moja kwa moja kwa NSISC.
