Flag
There are two Hebrew words rendered "flag" in our Bible:
1. A word of Egyptian origin, and denoting "any green and course herbage, such as rushes and reeds, which grows in marshy places." Ge 41:2,18 (here translated meadow). It is perhaps the Cyperus esculentus.
2. A word which appears to be used in a very wide sense to denote "weeds of any kind." Ex 2:3,5; Isa 19:6
