My favorite orange color is on Bittersweet Destiny. Haven't seen another orange daylily quite like it. It's nicely colorfast/sunfast too......Maryl


Kind of an OT plant, but a real lollapolooza orange I found on a Gladiolus. A true beacon for we orange fanatics.

OhhhhhQ Bittersweet Destiny is gorgeous! Love that color!

It's like it has some coral mixed in with the bright orange -- beautiful!

Really like the gladiolus

Love all the oranges! Thanks everyone for sharing! Here are a few of my favorites from last summer.

Big Bertha's Sister New last summer from Don Herr.


Coleman Hawkins has been a favorite for years. Such great color! One of Dan Bachman's best!


Drink the Wind. New in my garden last summer from John Rice.


Expose. From Region 11's own Bob Tankesley-Clarke



Lake of Fire by Karol Emmerich.



Had to include Phil Korth's gorgeous Music Monkey! One of my favorite daylilies!

Beautiful, and I love the fact that I've never heard of any of them before and now I get to see them for the first time!

Sure is nice to see some color this time of year! I've admired images of Tahlequah Flame for some time, the dark orange with a watermark makes a pretty combination. Not very many orange daylilies here, just not my favorite color, but here's a few I do have...

Beware the Wizard



Jerry Pate Williams



Bass Gibson



Outrageous



Primal Scream



Peach Magnolia



Sigourney



Southport



Peaches En Regalia

I have only a few orange daylilies at present, though I'm looking for Kindling the Flame (Grace) and Overheated (Grace). It's so nice to see everyone's blooms during the cold season.

Here is Citrix, one of my long-time favorites

Very nice, Ann.

Ann!

Here's an oldie that can still sizzle in the early sunlight. Tuscawilla Tigress. Wasn't as sunfast as I had hoped, but it was new so another year may make a difference. Still an eyecatcher until mid afternoon.....Maryl

Most of my oranges are oldies. Would like some of the new ones.

AVANTE GARDE


BANGKOK BAY


DEAN COREY


LEROY


NEW PERSPECTIVE


PRIMAL SCREAM


REAL WIND


STYLUS LAKE SUNSET


APRICOT ALIEN


FORSYTH HOT LIPS


LAUGHING CLOWN


ORANGE EXOTICA


SUZY CREAM CHEESE

Love your pic of Sigourney, Char! Curt's picture had never appealed to me, but yours makes me think that maybe I 'need' it after all :~) Cynthia, Avante Garde may be old, but it's still one of my favorites!

Here are a few more oranges from my garden

My Friend Charlie. Paul Owen.


Old Time Memories. Jack Carpenter


Quest For Atlantis. A softer shade of orange.


Roy Likes Em Hot. Sandy Holmes.



Show Jumping. John Rice. I got this one as a bonus and it has performed better than the daylily I 'wanted'.....

I guess because I started with the old ditch lily I tried to get away from orange. The newer orange are NICE. I hope to add a few of those.

Thought I'd share a few of my orange seedlings. Really love the oranges!

Highland Pinched Fingers x Heavenly Beginnings


Rock Solid x Music Monkey


Spacecoast Shiner x Primal Scream


Highland Pinched Fingers x Where Eagles Soar

I love your seedlings, Ann! Beautiful!

Thanks Ann, Sig is definitely one daylily that makes you stop to look. Difficult to work with hybridizing, but worth the effort. The seedlings are much easier to use. Nice seedlings, favorite is the Highland Pinched Fingers X Heavenly Beginnings sdlg. I've never grown Citrix, everyone who has it says it is a favorite.

I can't say orange is my favorite color either, but there are so many pretty shades here!

I like Sigourney too Char. Very unique.

Ann, you have some very nice seedlings.

Bangkok Bay is also very pretty, Cindy.

Thanks Vickie

yeah, me too!!
Plus, my mother's favorite color has always been orange. I was traumatized by an orange shag carpet (oh the horror!!) growing up so I tended to avoid orange for years.
Funny though, I love orange now.
I had no idea there were so very many gorgeous orange daylilies! I put in a couple of new garden areas this fall and about 40 new DL --many orange and purple-- too bad I didn't know about ATP and this forum then, so that I could ask "where can I get some of these?"
I did get a Tuscawilla Tigress though...

//fabulous pics everybody--Thanks!
