Georgia Flag Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Material for the Peach State
Flying the "Three Stripes" in Georgia requires a flag built for the Southern climate. Whether you are in a high-wind mountain pass or a sun-drenched coastal town, matching the material to your region is key:
-
For High-Wind & Coastal Regions: We recommend our 2-Ply Tough-Ply Polyester Georgia Flags. This is our "Appalachian-Grade" fabric, featuring an open-weave design that reduces "whipping" stress. It is the most durable choice for the Blue Ridge and the Georgia Coastline.
-
For Brilliant Color & Quick-Drying: Our Heavy-Duty Nylon Georgia Flags are the top choice for residential displays in the Piedmont and Upper Coastal Plain. These flags are treated with specialized UV-inhibitors to protect the "Old Glory Red" and "Old Glory Blue" from the intense Georgia sun, ensuring they stay vibrant and dry quickly after heavy rainfall.
-
The Tidmore Standard: Every Georgia flag we sell is 100% Made in the USA, FMAA-certified, and strictly follows the Official Design of 2003. We ensure the Georgia State Seal and the "In God We Trust" motto are perfectly centered and legible.
What Size Georgia State Flag Should I Buy?
While our Heavy-Duty Nylon is the standard for color, and our 2-Ply Polyester is built for Mountain winds, the most important factor in a professional display is the scale. Before you order, see our Georgia State Flag Size Guide to learn why a 20ft residential pole typically requires a 3x5ft flag, whereas a 25ft pole—common for Atlanta government buildings and Georgia businesses—is better suited for a 4x6ft design to ensure Official Georgia Proportions.
| Flag Size | Recommended Pole Height | Best Use |
|---|---|---|
| 2' × 3' | 10'–15' | Porches, wall mounts |
| 3' × 5' | 15'–20' | Most homes & storefronts |
| 4' × 6' | 20'–25' | Extra presence |
|
5' × 8' |
25' |

Can I fly the Georgia flag with the US flag?
Flying the American flag alongside the Georgia state flag creates a respectful, balanced display for homes, businesses, schools, and government buildings. To simplify sizing and ensure proper etiquette, our American flag and Georgia state flag bundle pairs both flags in matched materials, proportions, and finishes for indoor or outdoor use.
The Meaning of the Georgia Flag: Wisdom, Justice, and Moderation
The current Georgia state flag was adopted in 2003, featuring a design that honors the state's historic role as one of the original 13 colonies. At Tidmore Flags, we honor the "Peach State" by adhering to these official symbolic requirements:
-
The Three Stripes: The two red and one white stripe are a tribute to the first national flag of the Confederacy (the "Stars and Bars"), but modified to represent Georgia's modern identity.
-
The Blue Canton: In the upper left corner, the blue field contains a circle of 13 White Stars, representing Georgia’s status as one of the original 13 colonies that formed the United States.
-
The State Seal: Located within the stars, the seal features an arch representing the Constitution, supported by three pillars symbolizing the three branches of government: Legislative, Executive, and Judicial.
-
The Motto: Wrapped around the pillars are the words Wisdom, Justice, and Moderation, which are the cornerstones of the Georgia state spirit.
-
Historical Accuracy: We ensure every flag meets the precise color shades defined by the state, providing a professional look for schools, government offices, and homes alike.
