The city flag of Miami depicts three horizontal stripes, one orange, one white, and one green, and the city's seal in the middle of the white stripe. Text surrounding the city seal reads "THE CITY OF MIAMI" and "DADE CO., FLORIDA," with text on the inside of the seal reading "INCORPORATED 1896;" the text inside the seal is split in half by a palm tree. The flag was designed by Charles L. Gmeinder, Jr. and was adopted November 13, 1933.[1][2]
