Artist Zarah Hussain recalls her father's love of gardening and growing roses as a link to his native Pakistan. She reflects on the rose as a symbol of British national identity while also having foreign origins and universal appeal. "The rose is a migrant, a traveller, beholden to no land, culture or language, but embraced by all.

Presenter: Olly Mann Producer: Sheila Cook.
