What are the water needs for Angelica
Angelica should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
What is the right soil for Angelica
Angelica loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.
What is the sunlight requirement for Angelica
To ensure optimal growth, the Angelica prefers bright indirect light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.
How to fertilize Angelica
The Angelica should be repotted when it has doubled in size or annually, whichever comes first. Providing fresh potting soil with all the essential nutrients each year ensures the plant's well-being, eliminating the need for fertilizer. Remember, plants derive their energy from the sun and not fertilizer.
Is Angelica toxic to humans/pets?
Angelica is poisonous if ingested. We suggest keeping this plant out of reach if you have children, cats, or dogs in the home.
