This striking dinner plate dahlia is truly unforgettable. Dahlia Spartacus, a show-stopping champion, features large, multi-petalled blooms that measure 20-25cm across, in a deep, bold roman-red. A true gladiator in the garden, Spartacus promises a dramatic display from July through October and stands resilient even in the face of a downpour. Plant it centrally in your border, paired with other vibrant late-season perennials, to create a fiery focal point. As with all dahlias, Spartacus excels as a cut flower, with sturdy stems that support its impressive blooms and ensure a long-lasting vase life. Height: 120cm (48in). Spread: 50cm (20in).
