Full description
"The thistle legend
But why is it that such a proud people as the Scots should choose a humble weed as its national symbol? In truth, no-one knows. There is a legend which relates how a sleeping party of Scots warriors were almost set upon by an invading band of Vikings and were only saved when one of the attackers trod on a wild thistle with his bare feet. His cries raised the alarm and the roused Scots duly defeated the Danes. In gratitude, the plant became known as the Guardian Thistle and was adopted as the symbol of Scotland."
There is no denying that the thistle is a proud plant. This french beaded Thistle stands at about 12" high. It's form is shaped from 12 separate 'petals' and surrounded by mixed green sepals. The 3 leaves are made up of the same mixture of green beads with adds texture. The shape of the leaves and sepals are to mimic the rough edges found in nature.
Each stem is sold separately and is strong enough to be free standing in a vase.
Care and cleaning instructions will also be included.
