  The floral symbol of England is the RED ROSE. Earlier, it decorated the arms of the House  of Lancaster. The Lancastrians argued  for the throne of England with the Yorkists whose arms had a white rose. The war for the throne between the Lancastrians and the Yorkists became known in the story of the country  as the War of the Res and White Rose. It lasted 30 years ( 1455-1485). Then the Lancastrians won the war their arms of the Red Rose became the symbol of the whole England.

  The Scottish symbol is a wild plant called the Thistle. At one point, the Scandinavians planned to attack a Scottish village. But since the Scots knew 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.
