While it mirrors the design of its neighbor, the history of this banner is a unique tale of resistance and cultural pride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flag features five horizontal stripes. The \u003cb\u003ethree red stripes\u003c\/b\u003e represent the blood of the brave warriors who fought for the island, while the \u003cb\u003etwo white stripes\u003c\/b\u003e symbolize the victory and peace obtained after gaining independence. On the hoist side, the \u003cb\u003eblue triangle\u003c\/b\u003e represents both the sky and the coastal waters that surround the \"Island of Enchantment.\" At the center of the triangle sits the \u003cb\u003ewhite five-pointed star\u003c\/b\u003e, representing the beautiful island of Puerto Rico itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis garden flag is a proud tribute to the resilience of the Puerto Rican people and the vibrant spirit of Boricua culture. It stands as a historic symbol of heritage that brings a piece of the Caribbean to any home or garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Two Wings of a Bird:\u003c\/strong\u003e The story of this flag is inseparable from the \u003ca title=\"Cuba Flag\" href=\"https:\/\/flagsforgood.com\/products\/cuba-flag\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCuba flag\u003c\/a\u003e. In 1895, members of the Puerto Rican Revolutionary Committee in New York City adopted this design by simply inverting the colors of the Cuban flag. This act of solidarity gave birth to the famous saying that Cuba and Puerto Rico are \u003ci\u003ede un pájaro las dos alas\u003c\/i\u003e (two wings of the same bird). For decades, the flag was actually a symbol of resistance and was even outlawed under the \"Gag Law\" until 1952, when it was finally adopted as the official commonwealth banner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLooking for a larger size?\u003c\/strong\u003e If you need a version for a full-sized flagpole, you can find our traditional 3' x 5' \u003ca title=\"Puerto Rico Flag\" href=\"https:\/\/flagsforgood.com\/products\/puerto-rico-flag\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePuerto Rico flag\u003c\/a\u003e here.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Flags For Good","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47869941055733,"sku":"PR-G","price":17.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0401\/1373\/3790\/files\/puerto-rico-garden-flag.jpg?v=1774283944","url":"https:\/\/flagsforgood.com\/products\/puerto-rico-garden-flag","provider":"Flags For Good","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
