 Orange
Sour orange, resistant to foot rot, became the preferred rootstock in low hammock and flatwoods soils with high water table until the discovery of the virus disease, tristeza, in Florida orange groves in 1952.
Sour orange has been reinstated in recent years because tristeza has been more or less dormant since the 1940's and sour orange is now the prevailing stock for 50% of the orange and grapefruit trees in the state.
A vinous decoction of husked orange seeds is prescribed for urinary ailments in China and the juice of fresh orange leaves or a decoction of the dried leaves may be taken as a carminative or emmenagogue or applied on sores and ulcers.

Australia's Orange-bellied Parrot can be ranked with the Giant Panda, Whooping Crane and Siberian Tiger as amongst the rarest and most endangered of the Wildlife.
Concern for the plight of the Orange-bellied Parrot is so great that the State Governments of Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania, the Commonwealth Government, the Royal Australasian Ornithologists Union and the World Wildlife Fund have joined forces in an effort to build up its numbers and save it from extinction.
Especially vulnerable are habitats used during migration, the Salt marshes of the highly populated perimeter of Port Phillip Bay and the shores of South Australia, south of Coorong.

Orange prices are set to rise as the harshest frosts in 20 years in two of Australia's main orange-growing regions cause havoc for the citrus industry.
Last year, an influx of imported oranges prompted some in the local industry to use their crop as stock feed.
Before the frosts, the industry forecast Australia's navel orange crop to be about 240,000 tonnes this year, about 3 per cent higher than last year.
