Angelica japonica is a species of flowering plant in the carrot family (Apiaceae). It is native to Japan, where it is found from the Kantō region westward to the island of Okinawa.[1][2] Its natural habitat is along coastlines.
Angelica japonica is a tall species, reaching up to 1.5 meters in height.[1] Its leaves are dark and lustrous on the upper surface. It produces umbels of white flowers in April through June.[2]
It is similar to Angelica keiskei, but differs in several key features. Angelica japonica can be distinguished its red-striped stem, and leaves that are thicker with less coarse serration. In addition, Angelica keiskei does not produce its first flowers until late summer or fall.[1]
