That's a big flag.


The 2002 Floral Flag is 740 feet long and 390 feet wide and maintains
the proper Flag dimensions as described in Executive Order #10834.
This Flag is 6.65 acres and is the first Floral Flag to be planted
with 5 pointed Stars comprised of White Larkspur. Each Star is 24
feet in diameter; Each Stripe is 30 feet wide. This Flag is estimated
to contain more than 400,000 Larkspur plants with 4-5 flower stems
each for a total of more than 2 million flowers. You can drive by
this flag on V Street south of Ocean Ave. in Lompoc, CA.
