ID please!

[vikkib]

As a result of my trip to Chelsea on Friday this may be the first of a few requests for help with identification please!





I suppose, bearing in mind this garden combined fruit and veg plants with the flowers this may well be the wrong place for the ID!

Looks like Lovage or Angelica

Angelica, Lovage isn't quite as robust.

I was thinking Angelica, as well

and it's on the Telegraph's plant list

Pretty good clue there ^^^^ Thelma
I've just visited my lovage in the rain and the flowerheads are not as rounded as the ones in the photos. Its easily 6' tall now

Thanks so much all!

I wondered if it could be Angelica but when I goggled it seemed more of a cup shape than a ball/round shape.

I shall continue searching!

OH was quite taken with it when I showed him the pics but he preferred it green than when properly in flower!

Fabulous! Thanks!

I picked up loads of planting lists then promptly managed to leave most of them on the train!
