Visited Wales long ago - 1952. Remember it quite well. For some reason, thinking a rose is the symbol of Wales, as a Thistle is for Scotland. Four countries make up the UK, gives diversity.

And a BIG WELCOME from Ohio, USA.

The generic plantlife representative of Wales is, oddly enough, the leek. The daffodil is closely associated with the Patron Saint, David. Over here in UK, the daffodil is the symbol of hope and renewal appropriated by the Marie Curie cancer care society, a registered charity that does great work with those in terminal decline from the ravages of that awful infliction. Especially for Gwalchmai, this is a lineside view of the Talyllyn railway, approaching Rhydyrhonen Halt, heading east out of the terminus at Tywyn.

Rose for England, thistle for Scotland, shamrock for Ireland and leek for Wales.
