Amy asked for orange irises...
Here is an online pic of an orange from Rick Ernst that I saw at
one of the recent conventions and loved. It is a TB named THAI
ORANGE.

In my own garden I like Hal Stahly's orange TB, CELTIC GLORY.
But my favorite orange bearded iris is an SDB, DESERT ORANGE,
one of Bennett Jones' oranges.
At the 2000 Dallas AIS Convention, PENNYLANE (Larry Lauer) won
the President's Cup. It looked wonderful in several gardens on
the tour. This online photo doesn't do it justice:
