If wet, cool conditions are keeping you in the house, why not "plant" a container online? Fine Gardening announces the launch of Container Craze, sponsored by Osmocote. Create your own unique container and save it to our gallery.
This will enter you for a chance to win a $6,000 spa stay for two at the award-winning Lake Austin Spa Resort in Austin, Texas.

You can assemble a basic container, or you use the daily clues and bonus items to resize the elements and enhance the composition. Best of all, you can enter from now until May 21, 2010.

A spa vacation is looking pretty good, isn't it?

PLAY CONTAINER CRAZE NOW!

Problems finding bonus items? Turn off your ad blocker (or read this tutorial)
On the contest page, you'll see a "follow the clue" box on the right hand side. Click on "show clue".





Search for the clue, in this case "A VIEW FROM THE LEFT COAST" on FineGardening.com.



Clilck on the most obvious result (in this case, the first one). You'll see a graphic in the upper right-hand part of the screen that says "You found it!" and you'll find the bonus code there. If you don't see the graphic, try disabling your popup blocker and refresh or revisit the page.

Back on the contest page, enter the bonus code into the box that says "enter code".

Hope this helps.
