Heres some of my favorite orange perennials: Butterfly Weed This flowers in summer and can get as high as three feet. It has compact clusters of flowers and as the name implies, it does attract butterflies! Day Lily I see this beautiful flower growing wild all over the place here in New Hampshire. It blooms in summer and sits on 30 tall stalks. These perennials are virtually care free and will grow in most locations. Since 1 stalk can have over fourty flowers, you can have a bed of these that blooms for a month or more in the summer. Gaillardia This comes in a regular size that has 4 daisy like flowers and a dwarf size. The plant is short growing to about 2 feet and blooms in summer. These like to be planted in the full sun but are quite hardy and you can extend the bloom time if you cut off the fading flowers. And the best thing is that they also attract butterflies! Helianthemum - Blooms This is a good ground cover that blooms in summer It is easy to grow on rocky slopes and creates a border of color. If you are lucky it will bloom twice, once in early summer and then again in late summer. Oriental Poppy Beautiful orange flowers that bloom in spring and grow to 24. These beautiful perennials like a sunny spot with well drained soil. Torch lily - This interesting perennial blooms in summer and produces spikes of orange cone shaped flowers that can grow to 6 feet. It likes to be planted in a sunny location and is great for zones 5 10. This plant attracts hummingbirds! Trumpet Creeper I had one of these beautiful vines growing wild up my chimney. It blooms in mid to late summer and has trumpet shaped flowers that hang from its lush vines. It will cling to anything and can grow up to 30 feet. It can also grow as a shrub when it has nothing to cling to. It grows quickly and also attracts hummingbirds.
