Scottish Thistle pink flowers and thorns on green background #122185612
Description
One legend has it a sleeping party of Scots warriors were saved from ambush by an invading Norse army when one of the enemies trod on the spiky plant. His anguished cry roused the slumbering warriors who duly vanquished the invader and adopted the thistle as their national symbol. A biennial of the Asteraceae plants.
