Hi everyone! I made a code that changes the color of the object when I hover over it with my cursor, but Unity says this error every time: The type name ‘Lerp’ does not exist in the type ‘Color’

using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
 
public class Interactions : MonoBehaviour {
private Color startcolor;
private Color lerpedColor;
    void OnMouseEnter(){
        StartCoroutine(Lerp());
    }
    
    IEnumerator Lerp(){
        yield return new WaitForSeconds(1f);
        startcolor = GetComponent<Renderer>().material.color;
        lerpedColor = new Color.Lerp(startcolor, (27, 17, 46), 1.0f);
        GetComponent<Renderer>().material.color = lerpedColor;
    }

    void OnMouseExit(){
        GetComponent<Renderer>().material.color = startcolor;
        startcolor = GetComponent<Renderer>().material.color;
        lerpedColor = new Color.Lerp((27, 17, 46), startcolor, 1.0f);
        GetComponent<Renderer>().material.color = lerpedColor;
    }
}

Color.Lerp is a static function, you should not declare new Color, just call it directly.
