Hats off to the Red, White & Blue!

The Huntsville Botanical Garden celebrates Huntsville's diversity with a presentation of six national flags from various countries. The flags are made up of different colors of flowers to represent each country. With 103 languages spoken in Huntsville, these six flags are just a sampling of some residents' ancestral countries.

The Garden has posted interesting facts about each country by their flag. The United States flag says: Did You Know...
