So, if I'm understanding correctly... if blue and violet stains appear on the paper towel, but could not be seen in the flower, then there's still a good chance that some offspring could be these colors?
Yes.  I was working with recessives and thus trying to eliminate the ones that were pastel because of the presence of an inhibitor -- but it should work in reverse and serve to identify those that have a signficant dose of the precursor pigments that just need to be "turned on" in the next generation.
