Bountiful Rush

#669321
Notes

Bountiful Rush (#669321) is a true lime 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 (84°, 63%, 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 indigo. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

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.

Rush
noun

The genus Juncus — wetland sedge-family plants whose hollow green stems were used historically for rushlights (torches dipped in tallow) and traditional weaving. The color refers to a clump of fresh rushes in a damp meadow: a saturated, slightly cool deep yellow-green with the matte finish of round hollow stalks.

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.
