Do Herbal A and Herbal B correspond to differences in imagery?
#39
It's possible that it was a quality issue. Even the reddest red in the VM is still brownish. And the only occurrences of red in Herbal B use a thick half brown paste.

If they ran out of means to produce a satisfactory red, this might mean that Herbal B was painted after the small plants and the Zodiac.
