Naliniji: I was thinking of what is found in nature naturally. All the cultivated and developed varieties would have differrent colours. But I am told that perfectly blue rose and perfectly black tulip has not been developed as yet. I don't know whether it has happened now. About your observation I have only one doubt. I hope you are not drawing conclusion from the garden flowers which are generally from improved seeds. I had read somewhere that brown eye gene is more dominant as compared to blue eye gene and therefore the number of people with blue eyes is gradually decreasing in the world. Unfortunately I have not been a student of life sciences so I do not have thaat amount of technical knowledge. When I had mentioned light purple, I had in mind that white is also dominant, and pink is another common colour like in lotus and lilies. Maybe I am wrong, and that is why I wanted to know the correct status. I also feel that white is found more in tropeical region whereas temperate region has more colours. Best wishes, akbhatt
