• The symbol of England is the rose. The flower has been
adopted as England’s emblem since the time of the Wars of the
Roses - civil wars (1455-1485) between the royal house of
Lancaster (whose emblem was a red rose) and the royal house
of York (whose emblem was a white rose).The Yorkist regime
ended with the defeat of King Richard III by the future Henry VII
at Bosworth on 22 August 1485, and the two roses were united
into the Tudor rose (a red rose with a white centre) by Henry VII
when he married Elizabeth of York.
• The symbol of Scotland is the thistle.
• The national flower of Wales is usually considered to be the
daffodil, which is traditionally worn on St. David's Day.
However, the humble leek is also considered to be a traditional
emblem of Wales possibly because of its colours, white over
green, echo the ancient Welsh standart.
• The symbol of Northern Ireland is the shamrock.
