What is the name for dark red/orange sunflowers with purple leaves?


Question:What large dark orange red sunflowers with purple leaves called?
I've seen them sold at grocery store before, but I can't find anything online about them.

Answers:
Tithonia is a bright orange sunflower (Mexican Sunflower), but so far as I know it doesn't have a cultivar with purple leaves.

Here's a place with some sunflower cultivars listed. Perhaps one of them is what you're looking for?

Here's the Burpee catalog listing of some of their sunflowers as well (it's about 3 pages)
