Bountiful Roseate

#913d7d
Notes

Bountiful Roseate (#913D7D) is a true magenta 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 (314°, 41%, 40%) 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 green. 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.

Roseate
noun

Latin rosātus, rosy — adopted into English for any naturally pink-magenta colored phenomenon, particularly the roseate spoonbill (Platalea ajaja) of Florida and Caribbean coastal wetlands. Roseate color refers to a Platalea ajaja breast-and-shoulder feather field in late-afternoon light: a saturated, slightly cool deep magenta with the velvet finish of carotenoid-pigmented feather barbs over melanin-substrate flight feathers.

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.
