Orange 'dangly' plants - ideas wanted

I thought I'd try Nasturtiums in a semi-circle hanging planter. All I want is sone orange/gold colour trailing down an awful white fence we can't change but have to look at out our dining room window.
Other ideas?
(I am right, nasturtiums do trail down?)

Have you thought of orange pansies, or orangy mimula, they might dangle better than nasursums.

I've seen hanging baskets of nasturtiums illustrated, but never in the flesh, and they dangled pretty well, if the photo can be believed!
Maybe a mixture of nasturtiums and pansies and mimulus, as suggested by yvonne, might give you a nice, varied look?
