I am from Armenia, Quindio. The flag color it is green, yellow
and white.
Luis F. Jaramillo, 29 January 1997
Mr. Jaramillo may well have noticed the flag of his province.
But it is not according to Profesor Restrepo Uribe who informed
about a green, yellow, red. A change, perhaps? In my city lives
another citizen born in Armenia (Colombia), but he has never
heard of provincial flags (he came to Catalonia twenty years
ago).
Jaume Olle', 31 January 1997
And the official site <www.presidencia.gov.co>
agrees with Jaume. It is red.
Dov Gutterman, 3 June 2000
The flag is green-yellow-CRIMSON.
From <www.quindio.gov.co>:
"Tres franjas iguales en su dimensión, colocadas en forma
vertical, con los colores verde, amarillo y púrpura."
Jens Pattke, 10 Febuary 2004
I was born in Manizales (Caldas) somehow close to the Quindío
department. Mr. Jens Pattke is correct, the flag is green, yellow
and crimson. The flag that Mr. Luis Jaramillo remembers (green,
yellow and white) is the Armenia's
flag (Armenia is the capital city of the department).
Ricardo Arce, 18 July 2005
According to <www.quindio.gov.co>,
the third colour of Quindo is crimson. That
colour represents the colour of matured coffee grains, ready for
harvest. Green stand for vegatation, particulary coffee
plantations. Yellow/gold represents departements share in
national economy. The Flag was designed by Solita Lozano de
Gómez.
