THE winners of the Maldon and Heybridge Horticultural Society Tallest Sunflower Competition have been named.
For the second year running, the winners of the 2016 competition were George and Emily Powell, aged 10 and 7.
Their sunflower at the end of its run was measured at 11.5 inches tall, more than double George’s height.
They were presented with the cup and prize money at the society’s AGM on October 11.
