Abundant Anthurium

#811866
Notes

Abundant Anthurium (#811866) is a deep magenta 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 (315°, 69%, 30%) places it in the balanced band at a dark lightness. It works well as a headline, icon, or deep background in an otherwise light layout, pairing cleanly with cream, bone, and warm neutrals. For a confident two-color system, pair it with its complementary green. For something softer, pull in its analogous neighbors on either side of the wheel.

Etymology

Abundant
adjective

Latin abundāre, to overflow — present-participle of abound. As a color modifier, abundant implies a saturated-and-plentiful quality where the hue carries surplus visual richness beyond minimum requirement. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to plentiful and bountiful.

Anthurium
noun

Central- and South-American flamingo flower (Anthurium andraeanum) — a Araceae tropical perennial cultivated worldwide for its deep-magenta heart-shaped spathe surrounding the spadix. Anthurium color refers to a fully opened Anthurium andraeanum spathe-and-spadix: a saturated, slightly cool deep magenta with the glossy finish of waxy-cuticular spathe surface. The Greek genus name anthos (flower) and ourá (tail) refers to the spadix.
