Using this palette
Modeled on antique botanical prints rather than a generic garden theme — three greens standing in for different leaf layers, plus an aged-paper tan and cream that give it texture a pure-green palette wouldn't have. #D2C29D is doing real work here: without it the palette would read as 'plant' but with it, it reads specifically as 'illustrated on paper,' which matters for editorial, apothecary, or heritage-brand contexts. #2F4F2F carries text reliably against the paper tones; the mid-greens are best kept to illustration and icon work rather than large text blocks.
