Take a Leek for Saint Davy

Today is Saint David's Day (Welsh: Dydd Gŵyl Dewi). Saint David (Dewi Sant) is the patron saint of Wales. On this day many Welsh hie themselves to their local purveyor of leeks, take a leek, and affix it to their lapel or hat. Lacking a real leek, some will instead use Peter's Leek (Cenhinen Pedr), the daffodil.

My apologies to the Cymru, but the best I can do is a scaled down version.
