The Queen of Flowers, ruler of the cultivated southern lands, schemes to over Wildland with the help of her son, the 'Prince of Roses.' King Bracken, the frail and aging ruler of the northern kingdoms, has no heir. The prince journeys north with his entourage: two rows of Lupine Guardsmen, a bouquet of Chrysanthemum Courtiers, a host of Lobelia Lords and Ladies, and a group of Geranium Jesters. Meanwhile, King Bracken's beautiful daughter, Princess Bluebell, must find a suitable partner to help her rule after her father's passing. However, her heart belongs to Wild Thistle, a banished outcast from the cultivated lands who now lives in Wildland. Despite his lack of title, he fell in love with the princess. With the help of the kind Granny Petal, Wild Thistle warns the king of the queen's plot to destroy Wildland and uproot its people like weeds. The queen's plan fails, leading to her downfall. Wild Thistle and Princess Bluebell reunite and live happily ever after.
