Collarín de la última hoja
Flag leaf is the "final leaf", i.e. "Última hoja"
"A critical stage in the development of wheat plants is the emergence of the final leaf called the flag leaf. At this point the emphasis of management needs to shift to its protection as the flag leaf is critical for attaining high grain yields."

: In my work with Latin American Agronomists, "flag Leaf" is indeed "hoja bandera".
