What is the difference between green-blue and blue-green crayon colors?

The first part of the CRAYOLA Crayon color name is an adjective describing the second color name on the crayon. Green-blue is really blue with a touch of green, while blue-green is really green with some blue pigment in the crayon. The same holds true for orange-red and red-orange.
