Coin design:
A cluster of mountain avens blossoms reach for the sun above a bedof oak-like leaves.
Strength and beautyunderfoot.
If you’ve ever hiked the mountains of westernCanada, chances are your path was lined withroses; the tiny white and yellow flowers thatcarpeted the landscape as far as the eye could see.
The mountain avens is a dwarf member of the rosefamily that grows at higher altitudes throughoutthe Northern Hemisphere in Canada, the Alps andthe Arctic. Its genus was inspired by the Greekoak-nymph (Dryas) to reflect the oak-like shapeof its leaves.
Dryas integrifolia is a particularly hardy speciesthat was declared the official floral emblem ofthe Northwest Territories in 1957. Its short woodystems support individual flowers that springinto bloom as soon as the snow melts. They areheliotropic, following the sun’s path across the skyto absorb maximum solar energy, an ingeniousdesign to ensure this delicate, yet hardy rosethrives in its challenging clime.
