LINCOLNSHIRE - PARTS OF HOLLAND
Incorporated into: 1974 Lincolnshire
Official blazon
Arms: Or, three pink parrot tulips slipped proper; on a chief per pale sable and azure a ducal coronet and a mitre gold.
Crest: Issuant from a coronet of six acorns slippes and leaved vert set upon a rim Or, a fleur-de-lys burgeon'ee azure. Mantled sable, doubled Or.
Supporters: On either side a heron argent ducally gorged azure.
Motto: Labore ipse merces
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on December 9, 1954.
The shield shows three pink parrot tulips. Holland is famous for bulb growing. The crest is divided in two. The black portion has a gold crown on black. This is taken from the arms of Boston. The blue section bears a silver mitre.
The crest has a coronet made from acorns from which rises a distinctive fleur de lys burgeonée. Again this reminds us of bulb growing. The black and gold livery colours of Boston, the County town are used.
The supporters are herons, like the crest of Kesteven County Council.
