Plotted Easter Mint

Old English plot, small piece of ground — past-participle of plot. As a color modifier, plotted implies a clear-and-coordinate-mapped quality, the crisp color of Cartesian-and-graph-paper coordinate-plotted scientific-and-engineering data-visualization plot-line. Sits at the crisp-and-mapped end of the grid, parallel to mapped and surveyed in usage.

Old English Ēastre, Easter. As a color modifier, easter implies a Paschal-and-spring-feast quality, the visual register of Roman-Catholic-and-Anglican Easter-feast spring-resurrection white-and-gold-and-cream paschal liturgical surfaces under Paschal-feast spring-resurrection candlelight. Sits at the modifier-and-time end of the grid, parallel to advent and yule in usage.

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.
