If an @ is a rose, then it fits the nature requirement for haiku

so, i vote for rose

actually, I think "&" = ampersand.

from wiki.... "Other names for the symbol—such as asperand and monkey tail—have been suggested and occasionally used, [citation needed] but none is in general use in English."

"monkey tail" huh? Hmm...
