CSS color values can be of following formats.

color: red; // A CSS Level 1 color.
color: orange; // The only color added in CSS Level 2 (Revision 1).
color: antiquewhite; // A CSS Level 3 color, sometimes called a SVG or X11 color.
color: #0f0; // The color 'lime' defined using the 3-character dash notation.
color: #00ff00; // The color 'lime' defined using the 6-character dash notation.
color: rgba( 34, 12, 64, 0.3); // A color defined using the available functional notations.
color: currentColor; // The special keyword representing the color's value of its direct ancestor.
color: inherit;

Would you post this as an answer and explain OP that mixing is not available and would not make sense?

There is no "mixing" in the sense you hoped to have, and, moreover, such mixing would not make any sense. How "red-purple" could define a color unambiguously?

Please see:

Use it and be fine.
