luckily Tithonia is sold at a lot of retail stores. I've seen them in
the seed displays at Lowe's, Home Despot, Wally Fart and a few
others.  Tithonia will be easily started once frost is past.  Or you
can get a jump and start them three weeks before your last frost date
in little pots and transplant them.  Either way, once you have them
growing, they will gift you with dropped seeds when the little birds
discover the buffet.  I usually buy two or three packages and keep the
extra's in the fridge in a ziploc baggie in the veggie drawer.
They'll keep viable for three years. Moon vine is sometimes easy to
find at the box stores too.  Otherwise, someone might have saved seeds
and might share with you here.

Hard to find really truly red mg's - they always seem to turn out
pinkish red.  I grow cardinal climbers and the hummers love them.
