Radio 4 in Four

If you want something for your garden that will flower right through to October or even November, dahlias might be what you're looking for. They've not always been the most fashionable of flower, but growers are reporting increased demand and if you search for the flower on Instagram you'll get over one million posts. We visit a specialist grower that has been selling dahlias since the 1930s, and speak to Sarah Raven, the gardener and TV presenter about the flower's appeal. Winifred Robinson presents. First broadcast on You & Yours, 14 August 2019.
