I. Aquifolium: Legends, etc. 



of Blair Drummond, Perthshire, informs me 

 that it has been the recognised badge of the 

 Clan for many generations, but he never heard 

 why it was chosen. 



Many of the Scottish Clans use native trees 

 and animals for their badges, and probably the 

 selection dates back to the days of chivalry, when 

 the mystic meanings attached to the names may 

 have had something to do with their adoption. 



In the Language of Flowers the Holly is 

 said to mean Foresight.
