The design is based on the Scottish Thistle (Flower of Scotland). When the Scots and Norsemen were at war and prior to the Battle of Largs (1263AD), under the cover of darkness Norsemen managed to land unseen on the coast of Scotland. Removing their boots, they crept on bare feet towards the unsuspecting group of Scottish fighting men who were resting overnight in a field. Suddenly, a sharp cry of pain shattered the stillness: a Norse soldier had stepped on a thistle. Thus alerted to the surprise attack, the Scots sprang into action and drove the invaders from their shores.
