Plentiful Juniper

#318f10
Notes

Plentiful Juniper (#318F10) is a deep green with a jewel character. It carries the deep, saturated richness of a gemstone. Authoritative and slightly formal, it works well for type and heavy UI elements. Its HSL profile (104°, 80%, 31%) places it in the highly saturated band at a dark lightness. Best used in small doses, like logos, CTAs, focus rings, or highlight text, where its saturation becomes a feature rather than noise. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary violet. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Plentiful
adjective

Old French plentif, abundant — adjectival suffix -ful, derived from Latin plēnitās (fullness). As a color modifier, plentiful implies a saturated-and-generous quality where the hue carries rich visual abundance without restraint. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and bountiful.

Juniper
noun

The genus Juniperus, evergreen shrubs and trees whose fleshy berries — actually fleshy cones — flavor gin and Scandinavian sauerkraut. The color refers to the foliage of a mature juniper: a deep, slightly muted green with the matte finish of scale leaves and resinous waxes. Drabber than spruce, warmer than fir, with the alpine association of a plant that can grow at higher elevation than almost any other tree.

Moderately saturated colors gain a small bump in P3 — the difference is usually visible side-by-side on wide-gamut hardware but won't change the character of the color.
