Definition of purple

I wasn't quite certain if this is purple or not so much, so I asked wikipedia...
I was surprised to read this: "French and German purple contains more red and less blue than American or British purple" So I guess this qualifies as French and German purple... I am not to happy with my achievement today but I am struggling pretty much lately with my time and inspirations and... so I am happy to do anything. And I managed to include water here as well...

Lovely colour flower and capture.I would call this mauve but still very similar to purple.

This is pretty and a beautiful colour however defined. I got so analytical about colours last year as I decided to do indigo and violet. So purple and pink seem much easier this year. You have set your target high with colours and water, but doing really well so far.

I'm very confused in the proper definitions of blue through purplish pink. I think we can choose them to be what we want since this is our personal project. This is very pretty.

@777margo, Thank you. It is withered primula. Few flowers that I already had in my garden are all gone. I am waiting for new spring...

@helenhall, Thank you Hellen. I think I will stick to "regular" rainbow zhis year again, but enjoy appearance of pink in 365. It is always interesting to see how many things are there to learn when we dig under the surface...
