Bountiful Tomato

#a32367
Notes

Bountiful Tomato (#A32367) is a true magenta with a cool character. It leans cool, sitting on the blue, green, and violet side of the wheel. Quiet and dependable, a fit for product UI and data visualization. Its HSL profile (328°, 65%, 39%) 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 teal. 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.

Tomato
noun

Solanum lycopersicum — domesticated in Mesoamerica, suspect in sixteenth-century Europe (the Italians called it pomo d'oro, golden apple), and now the most-grown fruit on earth. The color refers to a fully ripe vine-tomato: a saturated red-orange that's warmer than scarlet and brighter than brick. The pigment, lycopene, is the same one that colors watermelon and pink grapefruit.
