Any recommendations for Hardy Yellow and Orange roses?

Posted by ritug 4/5 (My Page) on

I am trying to grow unsuccessfully so far some orange or yellow roses. I have Morden Sunrise in the front which is doing great - and if I cant find anything else - I am thinking of planting the same at the back.
My experience has been better with Floribundas than with Hybrid Teas. If any people from colder zones have grown these colour roses successfully for past few years - please do let me know. I want something which is trouble free, repeat bloomer and grows to be a good size.

Thanks for your help.

Harrison's Yellow is suppose to be hardy to zone 3 and is sold by J.W,Jung Seed Co. of Randolph, Wi I have never seen it sold by anyone else.

Dr. Brownell has been doing well for me for about 15 or so years. Kinda yellow-orange-pink, repeat blooming, glossy green foliage. My wife's favorite. The link below is not my plant, but is about as close to mine as I could find googling.

JP Connell, Topaz Jewel, Rugelda.

All these are very, very hardly. Rugelda should get really big for you in your zone.

Julia Child (soft yellow) has done wonderfully here for the past 3 years. Also, Carefree Sunshine (bright yellow) and Autumn Sunset (yellow/orange) have been fully hardy and are all rebloomers. I don't have any luck with hybrid teas (they're annuals for me).

I have a couple Hazeldean roses. They are shrub roses but extremely hardy. Covered in small yellow blossoms.
