Orange roses: vivid orange, warm orange and apricot-coloured roses

Orange tones appeared much later than red or white roses . In their effect, and therefore also in how they are used in the garden, vivid, strong orange roses differ from the apricot-coloured ones. Often a second colour comes through, which gives the more modern varieties a special charm.
