Northern Territory Description & General Information
|
|
The Northern Territory Flag was flown for the first time at the ceremony in Darwin on 1 July 1978 which marked the grant of self-government to the Northern Territory. The flag-raising ceremony was held on the Esplanade, overlooking Darwin Harbour, and was acknowledged with a 19-gun salute from HMAS Derwent. |
|
|
The Northern Territory flag incorporates the three official Territory colours – black, white and ochre – and the official Northern Territory floral emblem, Sturt's Desert Rose. The floral emblem resides in white on an ochre panel which is flanked on the left by a black panel on which are set five white stars representing the form of the constellation of the Southern Cross. The stylised Desert Rose on the ochre panel has seven petals with a seven-pointed star in the centre, symbolising the six Australian states and the Northern Territory. |
