Scotland's national emblem (7)

I believe the answer is:

thistle

(Other definitions for thistle that I've seen before include "Lithest kind of prickly plant" , "Lithest (anag) - plant" , "Scotland's emblem" , "symbol of Scotland" , "Lithest sort of spiky plant" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
