Angelica pubescens is a perennial herb found in grasslands in mountainous regions; its stems are thick and pilose, reaching 1-2m in height, and branch at the upper portions. Leaves are of alternate phyllotaxis; each big, bi- to tri-pinnate compound leaflet is in the shape of a long oblong, 5-10cm in length, and the margins are serrated. Branch tops emerge with large compound umbels and densely set many white flowers in them - it is as if fireworks. Bloom time: August-November.
