The "triple palm" flag consists of three vertical stripes of green (representing Saint Kitts), yellow (representing Nevis) and blue (representing Anguilla) while the tree was a coconut palm tree with three roots and three fronds, symbolising the destiny, humility, and pride of the three islands.

Anguilla and Saint Kitts and Nevis each adopted their own flags when St Kitts and Nevis became an independent country in 1983. Anguilla became a separate British Crown colony (now a British overseas territory).
