self-coloured
One hue throughout
Self-coloured describes something that is a single uniform colour throughout, without pattern, stripes, or variation: a self-coloured wool sweater, self-coloured fabric.
The term appears mainly in British English, often in textiles and horticulture, where a self-coloured flower has petals of one consistent hue rather than mixed or variegated markings.
