Favorite "Sunset Colored" Roses ?

What roses that are bloom in varying shades of a sunset are your favorite? I'm looking to plant a small mass of roses in "sunset colors".

Thank You

    I’m really loving the intense sunset colors on my Crazy Love! She’s a bit floppy and spotty for me but she’s young and been stuck in a small container and is otherwise healthy and vigorous.


    It seems I forgot to take a picture of how she ages in a vase but they lasted 5 days and the colors increase in contrast and look really interesting. No/minimal scent to my nose.

    Livin' Easy has brilliant sunset colors. This is my husband's favorite rose.


    Closer up view of the flowers.

    This is it aged (petals fall cleanly) and on a cloudy day. It still glows.

    I also love Lady of Shalott, she's a big climber in my garden and hard to get a close up of.

    Other sunset roses



    Well-being. Super fragrant, too.



    Here's Crazy Love.



    Also a huge plant in my garden, but it is a shrub and not a climber.




    And here's Carding Mill. More subdued in color. Stays compact as a shrub.

    Kristine, I love Daybreaker! I have never seen that rose before and it is simply stunning!

    I am looking up Crazy Love now. This is a wondeful thread. I love these colors too. Planted a Sunset bed this year. The bouquets are just what’s blooming today, but lots of sunset colors to share.




    my sunset bed has Jude the Obscure, Ronald Dahl, Lady Emma Hamilton, Lady of Shallot, Eustacia Vye and Carding Mill. Right next to it, but not fitting in is Fun in the Sun rose which is in the bouquet on the right, top and most left facing rose (nearly center of photo) : it’s a yellow bloom. warm orangey / Pink on the inside and yellow reverse. Sorry if that’s confusing. Don’t have a solo photo and have a sleeping baby on my lap 🤪

    Here's Lady of Shalott


    Boscobel is pink next to LoS.


    I'm loving everyone's roses here. I think this is my favorite range of colors for roses.


    Here's State of Grace just starting

    These are all so scrumptious! I agree that The Impressionist is pretty. Mine's not very old and doesn't have much space to expand but it has wowed me anyway. Deserves a prime spot.

    Wow! These are beautiful! I hope I can find some of these to buy this year. I'll be looking at our local nurseries I guess. Too late for bare roots.

    I don’t know what order these pix will be in, so brief descriptions:
    Yellow with red edging is Dream Come True. Fiery stripe in a vase with yellow and pink roses: Camille Pissarro. Double-centered HT is Dream Come True again.

    Echo Texas included Fun in the Sun.... This is also an excellent rose. Mine isn't blooming yet this photo is from last year.

    Wow, a lot of beautiful colors. I’ve never heard of Dream Come True, but it is stunning!

    I don’t grow it, but I‘d add Lady Emma Hamilton to this list.

    What I do grow, is of course Abraham Darby.

    Marianne is a favorite of mine. She's a modern Gallica, so she needs chill hours and is a once bloomer, and blooms on old wood (no fall or winter or early spring pruning ). She likes pegging and room, but she's my favorite orange/apricot rose.

    Roberto Alagna is fragrant and beautiful and healthy, too!

    Honeysweet bloomed today.

    I’m sorry to say it since it’s nigh on impossible to get hold of (roll on the end of the patent) but Lady Emma Hamilton is still my favourite!

    I’ll concur with LEH!
