Morphology

reddish-lavender = reddish + lavender (transparent) = reddish + lavender

The compound combines 'reddish' (somewhat red) and 'lavender' (a pale purple colour) in an obvious descriptive way.

Etymology

Reddish-lavender joins reddish ('a little red') and lavender ('the pale purple flower'), so it means a soft purple color with a warm touch of red.
