Between the fields where the flag is planted,
there are 9+ miles of flower fields
that go all the way to the ocean. The flowers are grown by seed companies.
It's a beautiful place, close to Vandenberg AFB.
Check out the dimensions of the flag. The 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. For our soldiers....
