THE NATIONAL FLOWERS OF THE RUGBY WORLD CUP

HortiTrends / October 18, 2011

> The Rugby World Cup is well under way and we thought we’d bring you a little
> bit about each of the competing countries – all with a floral twist. So,
> here’s a list of countries with a national flower that are competing in the
> tournament in New Zealand.
> 
> Argentina
> 
> In Argentina the ceibo is the national flower. It’s a South American Tree that
> grows between 8 and 10 metres high. It has red flowers and was declared the
> national flower of Argentina in 1942.
> 
> 
> 
> Australia
> 
> The golden wattle is a member of the acacia family and the national emblem of
> Australia. It has bright yellow flowers that are highly scented and often used
> in perfume production. It is mainly found in Australia itself.
> 
> 
> 
> Canada
> 
> While Canada doesn’t have an official national flower, there is, of course,
> the maple leaf, which is on the country’s flag. The maple is also known as the
> Acer and most species grow to between 10 and 45 metres in height.
> 
> 
> 
> England
> 
> The rose is the national emblem of England and has been since the War of the
> Roses (1455-1485). There are many types of rose in a variety of colours and
> they are often a symbol of love and romance.
> 
> 
> 
> Fiji
> 
> The tagimoucia flower is found in the mountains of Taveuni on the shores of a
> huge lake. There is a legend to go with the flowers that says they appeared on
> a vine from the tears of an upset child.
> 
> 
> 
> Ireland
> 
> The shamrock is a very recognisable symbol for Ireland. Interestingly, it is a
> registered trademark of the government of Ireland.
> 
> 
> 
> Italy
> 
> Italy, like France, is another of the European countries that doesn’t have a
> national flower. While, one of the most popular flowers is iris, which is the
> flower of the city of Florence.
> 
> 
> 
> Japan
> 
> The sakura is often known as cherry blossom. These beautiful trees play a
> large part in Japanese culture and school years often coincide with their
> blooming season.
> 
> 
> 
> New Zealand
> 
> The kowhai are small, woody legume trees. The Maori used to heat the bark with
> hot stones and used it to treat wounds and back pain.
> 
> 
> 
> Romania
> 
> The dog rose is a type of rose native to Europe. It produces rose hips, which
> are very high in vitamin C and antioxidants.
> 
> 
> 
> Russia
> 
> The national flower of Russia is camomile, a simple, beautiful daisy-like
> flower that is most widely known as an ingredient in some teas.
> 
> 
> 
> Samoa
> 
> Teulia, also known as red ginger, is the national flower of Samoa. These showy
> flowers are found in hotter climates but can also be grown indoors as
> houseplants. They also make lovely cut flowers.
> 
> 
> 
> Scotland
> 
> The thistle is Scotland’s national flower. It’s a prickly plant with purple
> flowers. It is said the thistle was chosen because a Norse invader stood on
> one and cried out in pain, alerting Scottish armies to an impending invasion.
> 
> 
> 
> South Africa
> 
> Protea are also called sugarbushes. Most protea occur south of the Limpopo
> river. They tend to grow in the Cape Florastic region, which is home to many
> diverse plants.
> 
> 
> 
> Tonga
> 
> Every year in Tonga there is the week-long Heilala Festival, during which the
> national flower is celebrated. There is dancing, food, drinks and parties
> throughout the week.
> 
> 
> 
> USA
> 
> The rose is also the emblem of the USA. It has been associated with the United
> States for a while but was only made the official national flower in 1986.
> 
> 
> 
> Wales
> 
> In Wales the daffodil is the national symbol. The leek is also a national
> emblem and, as the Welsh words for each are very similar, it is likely that
> one came around because of a misunderstanding.
