The State Flag of Texas (The Lone Star State) Printed on Nylon. This flags is 3 foot by 5 foot, and will hold up better in wind than the standard polyester flag.

Texas is called the Lone Star State because of the state flag's design: a broad vertical blue stripe at left, centered by a single white star, with horizontal bars of white and red on the right. Red means courage, White means liberty and Blue stands for loyalty. The star has five points, one for each letter of the state's name. The word "Texas" comes from a Hasinai Indian word, "Tejas," which means friends or allies.

Texas has 624 miles of coastline running along the Gulf of Mexico. There are 254 counties in Texas. It was the 28th state to enter the union, joining the United States on Dec. 29, 1845.

Our version of this flag is made of nylon for durability. It is a large 3 foot by 5 foot flag, and has a reinforced hoist side, with 2 metal grommets.
