sort of random question

I'm getting a quote from 2 Henry IV tattooed on my ankle this upcoming Monday (in Stratford!!!), and since my last tattoo was just text, I'd actually like an image incorporated with this one. My first thought was a rose, and then I thought maybe a Plantagenet flower. Anyway, I'd like to ask you lot what you think about it. I'm open to any suggestions (except kingly portraits. I love Hal but not THAT much *G*).

My two cents is that if you do get a rose? It shouldn't be the stereotypical image of a hybrid tea rose, since they weren't even bred until the early 1900's. I only mention this because it's a pet peeve - I grow antique roses and they bear little resemblance to modern roses.

I do like the 'plantagenesta' idea also. 8-)
Good luck!
