The Color Purple

The Iris Lady has many variations on purple in her collection. In her endeavor to rearrange them, she has to identify each one, and since she can't really move the blooming ones until fall, she is having a tough time coming up with names she can remember. The list is starting to sound like a visit to the paint department at the hardware store. Dark purple, violet, mauve, lavender... how many ways can you come up with to say purple anyway? As the high-tech garden boy, one of my duties is to take pictures so we can correlate them to the names. This is actually a lot more fun than digging holes, so I'm not complaining.

You forgot maroon, mahogony, periwinkle and royal purple. Geesh.
