For pale orange flowers, Chris Lane (who holds the British National Collection of Witch Hazels) recommends 'Glowing Embers. A bit of a challenge to establish but well worth the trouble. The flowers are large, lightly scented, with yellowish petals at the tips but then reddening toward the base -- like glowing embers the overall effect from a distance is light orange! Has a wide-spreading habit.
