Plentiful Nepal

#44872c
Notes

Plentiful Nepal (#44872C) is a true green with an earthy character. It leans grounded and natural, the kind of color that plays well with wood, clay, linen, and warm neutrals. Its HSL profile (104°, 51%, 35%) places it in the balanced band at a mid lightness. It works across type, buttons, and borders, saturated enough to feel deliberate but balanced enough to not fight the rest of the palette. 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.

Nepal
noun

The Himalayan kingdom — and the terraced green of Nepalese rice and millet farms climbing the Annapurna foothills. Nepal color refers to a Pokhara terraced farm in monsoon season: a saturated, slightly yellow yellow-green with the matte finish of mid-altitude paddy.
