orange foliage is rarer than red. Noteworthy plants with orange foliage include Orange Rocket barberry (Berbers thunbergii ‘Orange Rocket’, zones 4 to 9, shown here), New Zealand sedge (Carex testacea, zones 6 to 10), Marmalade coral bells (Heuchera ‘Marmalade’, zones 4 to 9) and Orangeola Japanese maple (Acer palmatum var. dissectum ‘Orangeola’, zones 5 to 8). Seasonal orange flowers can be found among roses, hyssops, dahlias and coneflowers.
Plant Combination Chinese fountain grass (Pennisetum alopecuroides, USDA zones 6 to 9; find your zone) Black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta, zones 3 to 9) Water requirement: Moderate; low once established Light requirement: Full sun Caution: Chinese fountain grass can self-seed and become invasive in some areas. Check with your local nursery before planting, and help prevent reseeding by cutting back seed heads in fall before they reach maturity. Get a similar look with garden-friendly ‘Blonde Ambition’ blue grama grass (Bouteloua gracilis ‘Blonde Ambition’), which does not reseed.
This window box grows in full sun and contains red million bells (Calibrachoa sp.), purpletop vervain (Verbena bonariensis), rose campion (Lychnis coronaria) and rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis).

A climbing hydrangea is all the decor this front entry needs. With a solid wood structure, the flowering vine frames the front door of this Mediterranean-style home in the San Francisco Bay Area, inviting visitors through the garden and into the home.
Look to feathery Black Lace elderberry (Sambucus nigra ‘Eva’), ‘Royal Purple’ smoke bush (Cotinus coggygria ‘Royal Purple’), ‘Hillside Black Beauty’ snakeroot (Actaea simplex ‘Hillside Black Beauty’), pictured, and others for larger shrubs featuring dark foliage.
