Anaranjado

We were always taught that the color orange is anaranjado, and the fruit is naranja. Here we are hearing naranja used for everything orange.

What is the "normal" usage here?

Anaranjado sounds like "orangish" to me, but you are correct, it is the word for the color orange. However, we are so accustomed to saying and hearing "de color naranja" so much that we rarely use anaranjado.

Almost all the Spanish classes and programs I have studied over the years use naranja. I think I remember a long time ago seeing the word anaranjado somewhere but I have never heard anyone in Mexico use it.

Just asking because there are futbol and basketbal games again in la cancha en La Noria.

Todavía el estado de Guerrero está en Semáforo Naranja. Ojalá que pronto podamos cambiar al Semáforo Amarillo y luego Verde.
