BIGGEST FASTEST STRONGEST 1: TALLEST SUNFLOWER
















Krissi just sent me this - she says: 

"This sunflower grew from a seed that dropped in the soil from last years garden. As it began to grow we weren't even sure what it was but as it continued to grow and grow and grow we figured it out. It has been lots of fun and our neighbors have commented on it since it is very visible even over out six foot fence. Last measurement before the sunflower stopped growing was just over 13 feet."

This photo is just totally laugh-out-loud irresistible, I reckon. And check out Krissi's blog for more Garden Olympics!


















Helen (aka patientgardener) says "I am entering my dwarf sunflower (3ft tall) which has an exceptionally large flower for its height, its siblings have much smaller flowers."That's okay Helen, here at Emsworth show we positively encourage creativity with respect to the rules!
