Can anyone confirm if Kiln Dried Sand is available in different colours?

Locally to me out of 5 builders merchants inc Wickes, they all offer a yellow coloured sand, which looks really bad on the darker red, or dark grey blocks. Only one supplier does a slightly darker one, but even that is not too good.

I've seen red, I've seen orange, yellow, 'honey' and a light brown. There's even a black, if you want to pay silly money. It doesn't matter what colour it is now, once it's been in the joints for 6 months, it will be dirty brown.
