Raj, Gladioli are 'World' famous in Holland.

According to wiki: on the Friday of the International Four Days Marches Nijmegen, as participants near the finish, the public awards the walkers with gladioli, a symbol of force and victory since Roman times, when gladiators were likewise showered with these flowers. The entry into the city and towards the finish, the St. Annastraat, is for that reason called Via Gladiola during the Nijmegen Marches.

Thanks for this very fine Foofy Friday image, my friend!
