Seat them in an order that first satisfies the requirements....

Dahlia: 1 choice -- the center seat.
George: 2 choices -- either side of Dahlia.

After that, there are no restrictions. There are 5 seats left; the number of ways to fill them with no restrictions is 5*4*3*2*1 = 120.

So the total number of different orders is 1*2*120 = 240.
