Or did  you mean to exclude the various whites, violets and mud colors from
the  "pink" count?

I guess I was excluding them.  However, I was also excluding violets  with 
tangerine beards!  I was looking at petal color only.  I've been  trying to 
remember I'm looking for the tangerine factor, not just pink flower  tissue.   
Years of bad thinking here.  These seedlings were  several years back.  Same 
cross I mentioned in the other post.  
 
However, I crossed KY WOMAN onto MEMPHIS MISS (one of two children I still  
have from the cross) and got all pink and a couple with a bit of coral or peach 
 tones.  Lots of lace but no rebloom.  No lavender.
