Angelica pubescens is a plant in the family Apiaceae, native to Japan and Taiwan.[1][2] The Japanese common name is shishiudo. In Mainland China, the plant under the name Angelica pubescens is actually Angelica biserrata.[3]
It is a herbaceous perennial plant growing to 1–2 m tall with tripinnate leaves up to 1 m long, the leaflets being 5–10 cm long. The flowers are white, produced in large umbels.
The young stems and leaves are edible. Shishiudo is often mistaken with udo.
