Show me a Scotsman who doesn't love the thistle
Show me an Englishman who doesn't love the rose
And I'll show you a true-blooded Aggie from Utah
Who doesn't love the spot where the sagebrush grows!
The English roses and Scottish thistles really were amazing. And I love that they have such a connection to plants as national symbols.

I don't know why, because I know it is considered a weed, but I have always liked the thistle a lot. I wish I could have seen them.
We saw one that was actually an artichoke! Weird.
I really love sagebrush. Do you? It is the best color.
