The judging of the Bull-Knox Sunflower Contest 2018 took place on Saturday 28th July at Knoxie’s zoo themed birthday barbecue.

The biggest sunflowers were measured and Bulls, measuring in at 111 cm, was crowned the tallest. Bulls also won the first Bull-Knox Sunflower Contest in 2014. They were delighted to regain the title and take home another cheap, plastic, solar-powered, dancing sunflower.

Despite none of the sunflowers blooming in time for the judging, Knoxie’s Uncle Mick was able to use his super-sensory, cheetah skills to determine Naughty as the prettiest flower and winner of the Indie Award.

Holts, who had failed to appear throughout the whole contest, made a slightly suspicious late appearance on the judging day. However, at just 50 cm it was still the shortest of the bunch.

The final standings for the Bull-Knox Sunflower Contest 2018 are below:
- Bulls – 111 cm
- Naughty – 95 cm
- Bull-Knox – 92 cm
- Sparkly – 88 cm
