From the golden orbs of Thambilly – the King Coconut, so pure, they say, it can be used instead of saline for a drip, and certainly the world’s best hangover cure –
to the vibrant orange of heliconia and tibouchina,
Ganesha’s flowery hat,
and the earthy orange of robes
orange is to be seen all around us here in Paradise. This little gallery is in response to Sue’s Word a Week Challenge this week.

Lovely, lovely photos.
Fantastic orange!
Ahh I always love coconut water, especially from a very young coconut. Nothing beats that! 🙂
exquisite! i am not always crazy about orange but these are exceptionally lovely 🙂 maybe i should make my ganesha a flowery hat?
Nice gallery!
I’ve never seen orange this beautiful! Beautiful post!
Wonderful collection of photos and a great response to the challenge. I had heard that coconuts could be used for a drip, didn’t know it was a specific type. Interesting.
I wouldn’t be surprised if ordinary coconuts, when young, did the same job, John, but I’ve only heard about the Thambilly. So glad you enjoyed some oranges 🙂
Being a Sagi I have an affinity with orange… ordinarily I wouldn’t say I love it, it just resonates with me, but when I look a such photos as these, I love orange 🙂
That’s a lovely thing to say, EllaDee!
I’m not Sagi – and I’d never say orange was a favourite or anywhere near – but I have noticed how it brightens my mood and that I often notice it. I bet I’ll miss seeing flashes of orange when I get back home.
Beautiful!
Gorgeous colors!
I love this palette of colour. It makes me feel very summery on this dreary rainy day we are having.
Sorry about the dreary day, Michelle (it’s too bad when Spring’s so late coming, and now dreary!) but so glad some tropical oranges were able to brighten things up for a moment! 🙂
Those orange coconuts were plentiful at home. They were called ‘Gendhali’ in Tulu. Hardly see them around here. Must have something to do with the soil. Another fabulous gallery Meredith 🙂
Makes me want to dash out and buy something orange to wear immediately, Wanderlust!
Well, you should do just that Kate – brighten the place up and give a glow to your face 🙂
Great pics for the orange theme. 🙂
Hm, a “medicinal” post. I’ll have to keep Thambilly in mind the next time I over indulge the Prosecco. 🙂
