Baraga listed Ojibwe /wiikenh/ as "angelica root" (belle-angelique en francais), but Fiero informs me that, according to Rhodes, /wiihkenh/ is "sweet flag", /Acorus calamus/.

Trying to find terms in the Eastern Great Lakes Algonquian languages (or "Central Algonquian" languages) for /Angelica atropurpurea/, known commonly as purplestem angelica, great angelica, American angelica, high angelica, and masterwort. Je crois qu'elle se nomme "angelique" en francais.

Thank you, Merci, migwec,

Michael McCafferty
