Description
Every summer, the fragrant wild rose colours Alberta’s landscape so that everywhere you look, there’s a profusion of pink—a sight that proves you’re in Wild Rose Country. Our ninth Floral Emblems of Canada presents a close view of Alberta’s official flower in peak bloom. This sun-loving shrub is named for the flowers that appear on prickly stems in late June or July. And just like Manitoba, Alberta adopted its floral emblem democratically: the final choice was made by schoolchildren in 1930, a quarter century after the mountainous province joined Confederation.
The reverse design by Canadian artist Lisa Thomson-Khan features a stylized floral pattern on the outer ring, while the inner core features a colour portrait of the official floral emblem of Alberta, the wild rose (Rosa acicularis). The obverse features the effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II by Susanna Blunt.
