garlanded
Draped with flowers
Garlanded means decorated or adorned with a garland—a wreath or rope of flowers, leaves, or other decorative material.
The word appears most often in figurative or literary contexts: a garlanded hero, streets garlanded for the festival.
To be garlanded with honors or praise is to be showered with them, as if draped in ceremonial wreaths.
