'''Henry II Curtmantle (1154–89)''' (''Henri Court-mantel'')
[[File:
It has been said that his father, Geoffrey V of Anjou, [[Trope Namer|gave the Plantagenets their name]] from the broom-plant he wore on his chest, the Latin name of which was ''Planta Genista''. This story, however, cannot be dated back beyond the 15th century. (Neither can members of his family using "Plantagenet" as a last name; the first was Richard, Duke of York; pretender to the throne and father of Edward IV and Richard III).
