The 2009 GREAT BIG, HUGE, REALLY QUITE LARGE SUNFLOWER CHALLENGE!
Grow a really big one and win a really small stack of books. Yes, campers
(and honor system devotees), just plant your seeds and watch them grow.
Send us your pictures (via snail mail) and real-life measurements (not your
measurements, your potentially book-winning sunflower measurements) and the
GRAND PRIZE WINNER with the tallest sunflower will win a $50 gift certificate
to Black Dome Press. Woohoo!
Anyone can do it-see below what we did at Black Dome's test garden in
2005 with these very same seeds (OK, different batch, but you get the idea).

Deadline: November 1, 2009. When submitting your entry photo, please
provide your name, addres, e-mail address, and telephone number. Winner will
be posted on this Web site by December 1, 2009.
