Australian Flying Corps

Does anyone know the different colours of wreaths that the AFC pilot wings had? I know they were generally brown but I have heard they were also in yellow and green. Also that the different colours may have been for the different squadrons. JK Cossum, in his book on army cloth insignia, does alude to different colours of 3 brevets but unfortunately his book is in B&W !!
