UK: symbols of England, Wales

Wales

The Flag of Wales incorporates the red dragon of Prince Cadwalader along with the Tudor colours of green and white. The Red Dragon, part of the national flag design, is a popular Welsh symbol. The oldest use of the dragon to symbolise Wales is from the Historia Brittonum, around 820. The red dragon is often seen as a shorthand for all things Welsh, being used by many indigenous public and private institutions.

The daffodil is the national flower of Wales, and is worn on St David's Day each 1 March. (In Welsh, the daffodil is known as "Peter's Leek")

The national sport in Wales is rugby.

The leek is known to have been displayed as a Welsh emblem in 1536.Leek was used by St. David. He ordered his soldiers to wear them on their helmets when they fought in a field full of leeks. Another reason is, that the leek was adopted as a national symbol, because it was important in the national diet in days of old.
