Please help identify mystery dahlia

I had ordered a 'Clair Obscur' - for reference, this is what flower I should be seeing in my garden

However when it came time to bloom each and every tuber which was labled as Clair Obscur are sporting blooms that look like this...

Can anyone tell me what Dahlia this is?? Is sure is beautiful and some of the blooms are a solid red. I would love to know what it is so I can actually purchase more tubers, just in case I lose any over the winter (I've never over-wintered tubers and I'm a little nervous about it)

This is actually not my first 'screw up' - I also have a lovely informal decorative that is a white with lavender tips that was supposed to be an orange and yellow collarette. Talk about 2 being complete and total opposites!!!

Thanks for any ideas of what kind of Dahlia I have posted here. I am sure I will be back to post many more questions. I am new to dahlias and I am hooked - or obsessed as my husband would say!
