Marilyn Monroe and Outrageous are to me STUNNING!! I love all the bees in your flowers. I like orange roses too. Thanks for the look!

Thank you. I just love all your roses, especially Kaleidoscope. I tried to find source for this rose.

I always wonder why I love roses with shades of orange because orange is not my favorite color . --Then I see pictures like these and I know why !!!!!

All beautiful orange roses and that's a great looking daylily, I like the colors on the throat.
I really like the first one too Pure Poetry.

I know what you mean. People ask me my favorite color and I say "to what are you referring?". What I like on a car I would not paint on my walls. Colors that I suit in clothes I would not like on a flower. Orange is getting on my short list for future rose colors.

Orange makes me smile, too. Great pictures! Here's some more orange juice for those who love that color!

And, oops, I accidentally put in a daylily, too. This is Primal Scream, and it just won the People's Choice Award for me at the Daylily Show at the Dallas Arboretum this past Sunday. It is in front of Halloween, another orange favorite, but I couldn't get it in the picture. The purple nicotania behind it self seeded. I am not sure the combination with purple is good - but I don't want to pull it out. Anyway, yea for orange!

Wow! Love the oranges! And that daylily is gorgeous Kathy!!

Wow. I always wanted Primal Scream. It is gorgeous. Thanks for showing it in a clump.
I agree about orange. I would not usually wear orange clothes. Even pastel orange makes me feel uncomfortable. But I must confess and date myself--my first car ever was a Datsun, red orange with a black vinyl roof. $2000 brand new. OMG, I loved that little car.

Beautiful, the oranges just light up the garden! I love all your photos, the bees are so neat too =-)

Thanks in part to this forum's enabling, Pure Poetry is new to me this year. Lovely photo. Tuscan Sun is one of my favorites, especially the way it ages. You've tempted me with Outrageous, so I'll be looking around for it. And although we have a monsoon going on here now, my daylilies are opening too. This is a double one called Madge Cayse
