I have some relatively old BM paint chip catalogs, Caroline and these colors may be what you're looking for: Apache Rede #1295 ...dark burgandy Bermuda Turquoise # 728...very dark green Bone White #03 ...slightly beige white...or... Windsor Beige [which is marked "special prescription"]...which is a slightly darker version of Bone White Frankly...I don't know where they get the names for these colors. "Bermuda Turquoise" has no resemblance to turquoise as far as I can see. Personally...I think they give the job to some little ole person whose office has no windows and his only job in this 8' x 8' room is to invent new names for colors. They only let him/her out once a day and that's after dark. ;-) No offense intended toward anyone who may be a paint namer. Hope the above helps. Anne

Oh, I didn't know that Chambrey was light blue, thanks for the fyi. I'm sorry they didn't help at the paint store, I would definately try another and I understand about the stripes, it was just a thought. Since you mentioned you want to leave your options open for bedding changes, I would say go for a warm low key beige that has a yellow base to it. Some have a pink base and that wouldn't be so good. A color I've put on my walls and have already talked about in another thread is Raffia Cream. It would go with the blues beautifully. You can find a sample card of it at the big box. :c)

I know diddly about New Zealand mosses, but this looks to be a pretty good website and you can ask questions about native NZ plants there - http://www.nzpcn.org.nz (New Zealand Plant Conservation Network). I hit "Native Flora" under "Quick Search" over on the right and typed "moss" into the common name field and it came up with 2 pages of hits. Sadly, a lot of the plants don't have pictures, but if you click on the plants name, it gives an extensive description of the plant.

After throwing it in a photo program and sharpening up the image, it does look like Carpobrotus to me, too.
