    All are really glamorous roses, I like the exuberance of hot fire color in different blends of orange! My favourite rose is absolutely the gorgeous and striking Lemons and Oranges! I love its color, petals shape and its stripes, but of course all the pictures you posted show so beuaitufl roses, all of them are simply breathtaking!

    Apricot Beauty and Coxswain are my faves. But I had never heard of them. Are they difficult?

    Just the thing to warm us up on a cold October day! Autumn Bliss and Tulsa Town are my favorites! I'll have to go scare up some orange pics!

    Mantis, The Coxswain is a rose I came across from Heirloom. It was planted over the summer and so far as done very well. It gets afternoon shade, and has grown quite a bit since planting. Even with the area around it not being ideal conditions (it is a new flower bed this year and very weedy still) it has not had any disease issues!

    Apricot Princess was one fo the first roses I planted when I moved into my house 4 years ago. There's kind of a funny story behind it :) I had placed an order from Springhill for some perenials and they accidentally sent me this rose instead of the perenial I had ordered (couldn't tell you what it was I ordered now, but chances are its long gone now that roses have taken over!) Anyway, they let me keep this one, and I'm so happy they did! It has only grown to about 2.5 ft high, and has about the fastest repeat of any of my roses. Its definitly not fussy..the poor thing is planted in with stone mulch in an area that doesn't get a whole lot of sun. I was really pleased with it, seeing as Springhill is a discount nursary and this is their only rose introduction according to HMF :)

    Oddly, most of the pics of HMF of these to roses are my uploads...lol

    Oh, goodness gracious Tammy and Peachymomo! Too many fabulous roses for me to name now, haha! I'm in one Sunset heaven right now! I love oranges! I only have lumps so I will just sit back and not scare anyone by showing mine ;)

    Climber, Westerland


    Joshua Bradley


    Jean Giono


    Kaleidoscope can be orangy in spring


    Disneyland, great in spring, not good the rest of this summer, though

    Manyo, a Japanese rose


    Tuscan Sun


    Samaritan is what it used to be called


    Outrageous, aptly named

    Love it! I saw a link a while back where someone was saying they couldn't find a "true" orange rose...I find it hard to believe with all these beautiful pictures!

    Peachymomo, I love your Golden Buddha! Paul Barden breeds such pretty roses! I think I've kept Rogue Valley in business this summer! :) I'm also jealous of your Jeri Jennings; mine had a slow start but has been moved to a better location and seems to be doing better!

    Kathy... Lovely as always! You definitly could have gone past 10 pics and kept out attention! I forgot to include my Chihuly in my oranges! Love the darker veins in Jean Giono! I'v never seen it and Joshua Bradley! And Manyo is just unbelievable! All so pretty :)

    Love that Golden Buddha!

    I want Chihuly! Orange, stripes AND ruffles!

    The truest orangey-orange in my collection is probably Halle.
    In the shade:

    Same rose in the sun:

    Never any other colors in this one -- it's always pure-in-your-face orange.

    A good grower and bloomer too -- I recommend it. I got mine from Wisconsin Roses.

    Pellicanhead: I have fallen in love wit Spirit Dance! That's about the closest to brown that I've seen in a rose! Now I have yet another rose on my "must buy" list! lol
