Plentiful Rhodolite

#c84188
Notes

Plentiful Rhodolite (#C84188) 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°, 55%, 52%) 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

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.

Rhodolite
noun

A pyrope-almandine garnet hybrid — the rose-pink-red gem mined principally in Tanzania and Mozambique, named for the Greek rhodon (rose) for its distinctive raspberry-pink saturation. The color refers to a faceted rhodolite: a saturated, slightly cool red-pink with the gem's signature internal life. Cooler than pyrope, lighter than ruby.
