The final emblems chosen were a maple leaf for Canada, silver fern for New Zealand, and Australian wattle. There was also the lotus flower for both India and Sri Lanka, a protea for South Africa, and three separate emblems for Pakistan — wheat, cotton and jute. All those pretty patterns got so heavy, the Queen needed an extra skirt under her dress to support the weight.
