Mary Evelyn is a collarette dahlia with busy petals that seem to be blended from three different flowers. There's a deep red outer ring of petals, a bright white (and much smaller) interior ring, and a glowing yellow center. This dahlia first came from South Africa and has a small but showy flower. It looks outstanding bunched together in a bouquet and needs no other accompaniment.
