Why not wear one? I frequently put a sprig of holly on my bonnet because--are you ready?-- I LIKE THE WAY IT LOOKS.

Brigadoonery or not, plant badges do have the place in Highland dress, and while the practice might be, as you say "virtually unknown in Scotland," many clansmen do wear them at gatherings and games. I can give you all sorts of evidence of this, but I don't think it will win you over!
