Ok, I'll bite; what is it?
Really, I think the colors are already here except for true red
and true green. What's new is the application, depth, or
combination of the colors as in Lowell's LIGHTS CAMERA
ACTION.
The colors in RING AROUND ROSIE have always existed in
plicatas, but the way they have been combined are new and
exclusive to this cultivar.
MIDNIGHT OIL really defines black. Can anything be blacker?
GOLDEN PANTHER is a 'different' shade of brown.
WIDDERSHINS is a brown zonal.
Then, you have the Pinkston things.
We've had the colors; the patterns are different.
I'll give you a definite answer when I see a lipstick red and a
forest green.
