The Queen's representative, the Governor-General of Barbados has their own flag .
The Queen's flag in banner form: The flag consists centrally of a bearded fig tree, a long established symbol of the island of Barbados (with the leaves coloured blue) and the national flower the Pride of Barbados flowers in each of the top corners on a yellow field. A blue disc of the letter "E" crowned surrounded by a garland of gold roses is displayed prominently on the flag within the center of the tree. The disc is taken from the Queen's Personal Flag.
