Latin floccus, tuft-of-wool. As a color modifier, flock implies a tuft-of-wool-and-flocked-paper quality, the visual register of Victorian-flocked-wallpaper-and-Tudor-flocked-velvet hand-applied-and-tufted flocked-wallpaper-and-velvet flock-and-tuft surfaces under Victorian-flocked-wallpaper-and-Tudor-flocked-velvet interior-decoration light.

The genus Mentha — peppermint, spearmint, apple mint, water mint — the cooling herb whose menthol gives it that quality at the molecular level. The color refers to fresh peppermint leaves before drying: a clean, slightly cool green with the matte finish of trichome-rich leaf surface. Lighter than basil, cooler than parsley, with the mojito-and-Pimm's association of a herb tied to summer drinks across two continents.
