Default The end of the dahlias? Not quite

We've had a couple of snow flurries, a couple of sleet showers as well
as a few bursts of rain and now back to sunshine.
So far we've just had a light frost a week ago and the tree dahlias are
still going, with the D. imperialis and D. tenuicaulis still looking
very fresh and with loads of flower buds

The tallest of the Imperialis are now up to almost 14ft

I should have said there are a few other of the Hybrid Tree dahlias that
still have flowers on them
