Don't forget about roses when you are considering orange flowered shrubs. A huge movement in rose breeding is bringing pest-free and disease-free landscape roses. To get flowering shrubs that flower spring through frost and are low maintenance is exactly what today's busy homeowners are looking for. New roses can be a great answer. Don't think of roses as just roses; think of them as garden shrubs that also happen to be roses.
This list of roses with orange blooms is a mix of tried and true Heirloom or Antique varieties that have stood the test of time, contemporary varieties bred for exceptional bloom power and the promising, new developments of trouble-free landscape roses that range from low-growing types to regular shrubs to climbing and tree-roses. Some of them are grafted and some are now being grown on their own roots with new cloning methods to withstand freeze problems encountered in the past. Combined rose interest is having a major resurgence providing the gardener with easy to care for and rewarding plants that you'll be glad you decided to try.

Orange flowering roses add a zest and warmth to the garden. The vibrant orange color can be enjoyed throughout the season and blends well with the other warm or hot colors; red, golden, and yellow. Roses with orange flowers are not as common as many other colors, so the key to enjoying the color is planting a variety of different types of blooming plants including flowering annuals, grasses, perennials, shrubs and vines that bloom at different times in spring, summer and autumn.
An interesting new combination that adds more flower power in the garden is growing the new, compact Clematis vines among other landscape plants. Having Clematis vine flowers sprinkled among the bright blossoms of rose plants is a lovely, striking blend.
