Sometimes I dream of having many wonderful flowers in really warm colours. When the plants do blossom in red, orange and yellow, I wonder why they aren't that energetic or lively. I thought that perhaps it's due to the wet weather and cloudy sky.
Later, however, I discovered that the other cause of the dullness in warm colours could be the hue itself. A warm pink is kind of peachy pink whereas a cool pink is purplish pink.
They say you can't paint a room in bright yellow as it is a hard colour for the eyes. But a cold yellow like the colour of these Russelia Equisetiformis 'Flava' flowers is okay and maybe good for the kitchen
