Fapmeister7272, a bit strong - the answer is actually correct for the question asked. Your comment would have been right if the question had been 'What is the source of the name Orchid?' Interesting facts however.

i know lots of "trivia" about flowers. In most coloring companies, i.e. Crayola, Rose Art, etc. when using the color word "orchid" it is associated with a light colored purple.

Tinatee, the first orchids I knew here as a child in the US were white, for corsages. However, since the 2000’s I’ve thrilled at the varieties of pinks, purples, and dark maroons as well as bi-colored species. I think of orchid as being a light fuschia (which my AC does not recognize as a word). But as a rich purple, I was unaware.

Purple is a BAD answer, particular in light of the “tint.” Purple is a secondary color of blue-red. Orchid, as a design color, is closer to CKMY magenta.
