Flag Description: The flag used prior to independence in 1967
also featured a nutmeg, because Grenada is a major world supplier of
this commodity and is known as the Spice Island. Other features of the
flag derive from the coat of arms granted on December 6, 1973, including
the red, yellow and green colors Explanation of Flag Colors: The yellow represents the sun and the friendliness of the people, the green stands for the agriculture and the red is a symbol of harmony, unity and courage. The seven stars represent the island's seven parishes. The nutmeg recalls that this small island is the second-largest producer of nutmeg in the world Credits: Caribbeanflags.com
