Symbolism & Tradition
The thistle, Scotland's national emblem, became symbolic after alerting Scots to a surprise Norse attack at the Battle of Largs in 1263—a soldier stepped on a thorn and cried out, warning the camp. This noble flower has featured on coinage and regalia since medieval times , and is closely linked to mottos such as Nemo me impune lacessit, meaning “No one provokes me with impunity”
