The Flag

The Manizales flag, in Caldas department, Colombia, the stripe order is wrong: The correct order is white, green and red, not white, red and green.
Carlos A. Leiva, 10 August 2000

Same flag apears at Gaceta de Banderas 15, "Simbolos Patrios" Gobernación de Caldas, Secretaríade Educación Departamental.
Dirk Schonberger, 18 July 2002

From <www.gobernaciondecaldas.gov.co>:
"La Bandera -Consta de tres fajas horizontales de igual anchura en los colores blanco, verde y rojo.
El color blanco significa las flores del cafeto. El color verde representa el follaje de los cafetales, y el color rojo, el color de los granos maduros.
Manizales es la tierra del café. En los pliegues soberanos de su bandera, se presiente el perfume de los blancos azahares, se escucha la canción del viento que pasa por entre el verde de su follaje y se extasían los sentidos con el rojo carmesí de sus granos maduros."
