The owners of a sunflower maze in mid Suffolk will celebrate its fifth anniversary with an Ipswich Town-themed experience to celebrate the club's return to the Premier League.
Freddy Vaudrey and Bekkie Hatwell own Frog's Farm, just off the A140 in Thwaite, and believe they have created their best design so far.
Due to open on Friday, August 9, visitors will be able to explore the maze shaped in the design of the Ipswich Town crest.

Mrs Hatwell said: "It all came around through a conversation my husband Freddy had with his best friend.
"We try to make every year quite topical. We've had the jubilee and very Suffolk-based things.
"They were listening to the radio and obviously Ipswich Town have been so successful they said why don't we do that.
"They put it through the maze design and it looked incredible."
The family has been hard at work creating the design since April.

The original plan for the design was in the shape of the logo of their pub, the Trowel and Hammer in Cotton, near Stowmarket.
Ipswich Town has donated a flag which will mark the middle of the maze, as well as a range of merchandise.
Food vans will also be on site, while there will also be live music on Friday evenings.
"We had lots of family meetings about the design and what we want to put in the maze this year," added Mrs Hatwell.
"We have gone bigger and better and learned as we have gone on every year.
"This year is hopefully going to be our best year yet. We are really proud of what's coming out. It is really exciting."
In addition to the maze, there will be climbing frames for children and wooden structures for people to look out over the maze.
Ipswich Town's first Premier League fixture will take place against Liverpool at Portman Road on August 17.
