in the story of the country as the War of the Res

the Red Rose became the symbol of the whole
England.

they were coming, they started to prepare for war.
Late at night, the Scandinavians came on their
bare feet so as to not awaken the Scottish warriors
in the village. But the thorns of the thistle hurt
their bare feet. Their howls of pain pierced the
silence and the Scots awoke to fight the enemy.

Dafodil
The welsh symbol is a vegetable called

saint.
