Angelica archangelica. Angelica is in fact a member of the carrot family, and an ancient and versatile herb. Recommended by the RHS to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects. Angelica has many culinary and medicinal uses, the stems have traditionally been candied for decoration of confectionary, and can even be used to flavour gin! It will self-seed everywhere if allowed to flower so either cut the flowers off before they set or ‘bag’ the flower heads. Plant 60-90cm apart. It will reach a height of 0.9-2.4m.
Melissa officinalis. A bushy perennial with broadly ovate, lemon-scented leaves with scalloped edges, and leafy spikes of creamy-white or pale purple flowers in summer. The flowers are attractive to bees, reflected in one of the plant’s common names (bee balm), and the lemon-scented leaves are delicious in salads, soups and also great for tea making. It will reach a height of 1.2m and a spread of 60cm.
