Here's 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!
