Regarding range of values for shades of orange

Hi there. I am new to MATLAB and am working on a program which requires me to analyse the shades of the color orange. I am working in the L*a*b* color space and am stuck with what range of L, a* and b* values to take for the different orange shades. Had it been HSV, it would have been easier, I would then just give a range for Hue (like, from 18 to 30) , which would then include all orange shades. Please help me out with the range in L*a*b.

The color orange changes where it is depending on the L value. See my attached demo.

If you find it easier in hsv space then do it there. Why are you using LAB space? You can convert between color spaces you know.
