Nothing. It's one of the few non-rhyming words.
This was in the resolved questions:
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker
"Orange is one of those words that famously has nothing perfectly to rhyme with it. The other one is silver. However, the Oxford Rhyming Dictionary does show both these words as having half-rhymes (such as lozenge with orange and salver with silver).
The principle of a half-rhyme in these cases is quite simple. Whereas a full and stressed rhyme (e.g. hand / stand) or even an unstressed rhyme (such as handing / standing) contain vowels that are common to both words, a half-rhyme like orange / lozenge or silver / salver (technically speaking, pararhymes) has obvious differences between vowels in certain syllables."

if your speaking on terms of written/visual rhymes, nothing rhymes completely and correctly with orange.
but if your speaking of strictly rhyming SOUNDS as emphasized in the English language, here's a few starters for orange:
storage - to store or put away
porridge - simple meal of oats
forage - the act of searching for provisions of any kind
that's as close as you'll get with the word orange. hope this helps!

Orange does not have a rhyming word... neither does 'month'.
