Is the complex projective space $mathbb CP^2$ a flag variety? If yes, what are the complex semisimple Lie group $S$ and a parabolic subgroup $H$ such that $mathbb CP^2=S/H$?

The group is $SL_3$, and any maximal parabolic in it.

More generally, for any sequence $d_1 < d_2 < dots < d_k < n$, the space of all partial flags $$V_1 subset V_2 subset dots subset V_k subset Bbb C^n$$
with $dim V_i = d_i$ has a transitive $SL_n(Bbb C)$-action. You can easily write down the stabiliser and more or less by definition it's a parabolic subgroup. Your question is the special case when $n=3, k=1$ and $d_1 = 1$.
