Description
You can’t miss the wild battle cry of Dahlia 'Bohemian Spartacus', bursting into the melee of your late summer display. With an informal mop head of rich and velvety maroon petals, shot through with bolts of golden yellow, this is definitely a rebel with a cause – on a mission to bring excitement to gardens everywhere. Its huge dinnerplate blooms with their profusion of wavy petals will grab the attention in any planting scheme!
The beauty of the luxuriant Dahlia 'Bohemian Spartacus' is that each and every flower is a unique work of art. Some may be pure crimson, some just have the lightest touch of gold, some are half’n’half. One thing’s for sure – they never look ordinary! You just need to provide a fertile, humus-rich soil and a growing site with plenty of sunshine to get the best results from these impressive heroes of the dahlia world.
