Etymology

Bountiful
adjective

Old French bonté, goodness — adjectival suffix -ful. As a color modifier, bountiful implies a saturated-and-generous-and-abundant quality where the hue offers visual richness without measure. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and plentiful in usage.

Tundra
noun

The treeless biome of arctic and subarctic regions — characterized by short summer growing seasons, permafrost, and dwarf woody plants. Tundra color refers to a Yukon tundra landscape in midsummer: a soft, slightly muted deep yellow-green with the matte finish of low-stature Vaccinium and Salix shrubs.
