Prince Andrew's bride to be Miss Sarah Ferguson has been granted this personal Coat of Arms. The arms comprise a thistle plant with leaves and flowers growing from a grassy mound; about to alight on the topmost flower is a bumble bee. Basically this is based on the device which has been used by her family. The motto she chose is "Ex Adversis Felicitas Crescit" meaning "Out of Adversity"
