There’s a choice in this episode for everything one might need, whether it’s to bathe your space in scent, long-flowering bee magnets, or simply the most extravagant standout Dahlia for its size.

In this episode, discover:

  • The guiding principles behind Gary’s scintillating small garden designs
  • How to build layers with year-round interest from tree cover, sub-shrubs and dazzling potted plants
  • Dahlia Waltzing Mathilda’s bold beauty and why Sarah always pairs it with the regal red Petunia Tidal Wave Red Velour
