national tree
Official botanical emblem
A national tree is a tree species officially designated as a symbol of a country, chosen for cultural, historical, or ecological significance.
Like national birds or flowers, national trees represent national identity: The oak is England's national tree.
Most countries have one, though the designation is often more ceremonial than consequential.
