Southport Flower Show 2001 Dahlia Section Report.

This years show had a somewhat reduced entry due in part to
the inclement weather conditions in the week preceeding the show,
and the earliness of the show Itself. Next year will be different
as the show moves a week later in the calendar. The overall
standard of entries was high making for some fierce competition
for the honours.
