Dahlia Bohemian Spartacus

Dahlia ‘Bohemian Spartacus’ is a stunning dinnerplate variety that brings drama, bold color, and an element of surprise to the garden. A sport of the classic red ‘Spartacus’, this variety produces enormous, 10″ blooms with rich crimson petals that often twist and curl for extra texture.

No two flowers are ever quite the same, making each one a unique masterpiece.

These vigorous plants grow 4 to 5 feet tall and thrive in fertile, humus-rich soil with full sun. Perfect for making a bold statement in the garden or as a standout in large floral arrangements, ‘Bohemian Spartacus’ is a must-grow for anyone who loves big, breathtaking blooms with a touch of the unexpected.
