Greetings.  In an article about lovage, the editor equates it with
angelica and writes "Remember, angelica is lovage."  The dictionary
says that lovage is an apiaceous herb, "Levisticum officinale" and
that angelica is an umbelliferous plant of the genus  Angelica, esp.
A. Archangelica".  Therefore, these two can't be the same, can they?
Do the two look alike?  Taste alike?
