Penicillin mould is white and green, the green colour is caused by the spores, the white is the hyphae or mycelia.
So you get a white edge with a green center is you are growing the organism on a mycological plate.
It grows on oranges.

No , that don't mean it is penicillin. Do not eat anything that has mold on it because it could hurt you instead of helping you. Some molds are green and some are white. I have seen the orange in a pet's water bowl that wasn't kept clean. And that could harm the pet. If the mold you have seen is in a pet's water dish please clean it. If it is on food, discard the food. Also if a house has high humidity , mold will grow on the walls, behind furniture and it is black. Mold will grow in the room in the house where there is dampness. Some people are allergic to mold.

No it doesn't. I is just the normal color for the fruiting body of that form of mold.
