Post card from Madurai. While most of the country is familiar with green coconuts, the southern parts including the Andaman & Nicobar islands have these bright orange coconuts . We call it Gauli/Gauri Gathram. These are a dwarf variety which tends to be sweeter than the green ones and cultivated primarily for its water. Native to Srilanka , it is called King Coconut there. #foodloose #thengai #gauli #gauligathram #thenga #kingcoconut #madurai #tamilnadu #native #srilanka #kingcoconut #orangecoconut #cocos #nucifera #nalikera #dwarf #coconut #horticulture (at Meenakshi Amman Temple) https://www.instagram.com/p/CI8hWqFlVhR/?igshid=15yz9w1cor328
