could you please help me with this>>

I've read that if two colors hyphenated for singularsingular type that means it is combination colors,if. If not, then it has part colors like:

A1- A blue-green shirt is turquoise

A2- A blue and green shirt is one which has parts that are blue and parts green

A1. A blue-green shirt is turquoise.
A2. A blue and green shirt is one which has parts that are blue and parts green.

but if we are talking about plural,thenplural,that then that doesn't mean combination,,like like:

B1- She has only blue and green shoesmeans that all of the person’s shoes are either blue or green

B2- She has only blue-and-green shoesmeans that the person’s shoe collection consists only of shoes in which each pair is blue and green.

B1. She has only blue and green shoes. Means: that all of the person’s shoes are either blue or green
B2. She has only blue-and-green shoes Means: that the person’s shoe collection consists only of shoes in which each pair is blue and green.

sameSame here:

C1- Yellow, pink, and red flowersrefers to flowers colored yellow, pink, or red,

C2- whereasyellow-pink-and-red flowersdenotes tricolored flowers

C1. Yellow, pink, and red flowers refers to flowers colored yellow, pink, or red.
C2. Whereas yellow-pink-and-red flowers denotes tricolored flowers.
