Anita, 

a number of resources, including wordreference as below, indicate tricoloured and three-coloured as synonyms, although in reference to the French flag specifically or to other ‘ three-coloured’ flags in general, I would also tend to use ‘le Tricolore’, or ‘ tricoloured ‘ flags respectively.
