1/12 The winning car, Nanook the polar bear (photo: Marcel van Dorst/SQ Vision Mediaproductions).

520,000 dahlias, just as many nails and hours of painstaking work to tap them onto wagons. The overwhelming result was shown on Sunday during the Bloemencorso in Zundert. Buurtschap Poteind won for the first time in 72 years with the enormous polar bear Nanook. All twenty cars ended up mercilessly in the shredder on Tuesday, but luckily we still have the photos.
