Default Rod identification

Hi, I am organizing glass after a long break from lampworking. I have found two batches of rods that are unlabeled. Any help with identifying them would be greatly appreciated. I am almost positive the are both Vetrofond odds, bought from Frantz in the late 2000s. This one is a greenish beige on the outside with a minty core surrounded by transparent.

I have labeled lichen and lichen dark, and it doesn't look at all like this. The core is much darker on the lichen, and outside of lichen is more beige, and less green. I will keep trying to research...

I have some that looks like that but the outside is a bit darker. It's labeled Green Olive Odd.

I think you guys may be right! It looks very different from my other lichen, but I melted some the other day, and the finished bead looked exactly like the marked lichen bead. It was far more shocky than the marked lichen. Uber odd lichen...
