My favorite orange is Alabama Jubilee. I really like some other ones also that I attached. These are all my pictures from this year:

I have several other oranges that are new plants and I have not seen them bloom yet, so I only included the ones I have that have bloomed in my garden.

Anyone growing a bright orange with Wildfire in the name? I cannot remember the whole name but I saw it and liked it a lot!

'Coleman Hawkins' is a Dan Bachman daylily that I've been growing since he introduced it in 2001.

'Chicken on the Run' is another Dan Bachman and one of my favorites every year. I've been growing it, since Dan introduced it in 2001 - 2002. He uses it a lot in his hybridizing. Wonderful and beautiful daylily.

This pic is a much better pic than the ones I have and have taken.

Fun going over this old thread, Coral Nebula and Zoot Sim are both wonderful. Keep telling myself no more oranges, but keep seeing ones I like.

Susan, you have a lot of beautiful oranges. Even though doubles are not my favorite, Glorious Autumn never fails to make me wish I had it!

Marilyn, Coleman Hawkins and Chicken on the Run looked similar in color, so I looked up the parentage. Sure enough, pod parent of both is Highland Pinched Fingers. I love them all!!

Julie, my GA is really more like your color. Not sure what was wrong with my camera that day. It does seem to have been less double this year than normal. Maybe because I divided and moved it last year?

I am not a big orange (color) fan, but I am changing my mind by staring at all these beautiful photos and by growing a few orange cultivars myself. So far, my favorite cultivar in own my garden is Wild One. When I saw that one bloom for the first time and saw the colors ... that seemed to glow, I was blown away! Used it quite a bit in my hybridizing early this season. Big Grin

I think oranges really pop in the garden and as long as they don't look like the old tiger lily, I like them.

Here are 2 more of mine. I have others that have not bloomed yet, so if they, I will post them later

Oh and FYI for the northern growers - Glorious Autumn did not make it in my zone 5 garden for what it is worth, but I wish - it is a beauty.
