The person I spoke with at BalNY indicated that Vert Thyme is really close to '04 sage...and close to origan! If that helps people!

I'm reserving judgment on greens....I'm so conflicted on green (I know I want apple green someday...but conflicted between pine/vert gazon/and now this one)!

Twiggers, I think there have been comparisons made (or hoped for) to Dolma and Origan. This new green is not an olive or yellow-toned green. It isn't a pastel. It is more dusky, with some grayishness to it. It isn't anything like a bright VG or Apple green. But it's beautiful. I don't think this swatch does it justice.

Vert thym is darker than I expected but I can't stop looking at that turquoise. It looks GORGEOUS! Like '05 only a little paler and brighter. I hope that swatch is close to the real color because I am loving that one. I knew BG was a for sure, but the turquoise is a real surprise! It comes later, for spring. The wait is going to be tough for that one.

So does that mean that vert thyme is close to dolma??!?!

OOOoh! So I've never done this before. I called them a few weeks ago and talked to a girl who took down my info and said she'd call when the colors I wanted arrived, that's pretty much how the wait list works right?

The person at BalNY kept saying it looked like '04 Sage:confused1: I then asked about Origan and they said 'close'. I asked if it was totally different from this years greens and the response was 'yes'.

I waitlisted for 3 bags and they kept asking 'Are you sure or do you just want to see them first' and I said of course I'm sure....but I wasn't 100% sure about the new green....so I didn't want to clog the waitlist!
