Orange Flower

 I have no idea what type of flower that this is. I see them all over in gardens but when I went online to try and identify it I could not find anything. The closest things that matched are the orange cone flower, which looked different in the middle, and possibly a form of tithonia, but they are more of a bushy plant and usually grow in the southwest. Maybe one of you can help me out and identify this type of flower.

I would have guessed that it was a Tithonia Rotundifolia but thats the only Mexican Sunflower I know of I hope somebody can give a better identification as it is a wonderful colour. I've just joined up as your newest follower.
