an agave-inspired color palette

I just realized that I spend waaay too much time trying to identify plants for my color palette posts. Sooo, if you know what type of agave this is, please share! Otherwise, I'm going to go with sisal (a.k.a., agave sisalana).

P.S. My mom just texted me a photo of the view from her hotel room in Puerto Vallarta. Oh, how I wish I were vacationing in Mexico right now...

DARK DARK GREEN #072F26 / TROPICAL GREEN #1D4F44 / AGAVE GREEN #4B907B

LIGHT GREEN #8DC8B4 / LIGHT BLUE #C7DDDA / PEACH #EDC7B4

WHAT ARE THESE COLOR CODES? The “hex codes” above are provided as a courtesy for those customizing website colors or looking for general color inspiration. They are not based on paint or Pantone chips. Remember that ink on paper will never look the same as light on a screen. If you like a combination you see, we recommend saving the image and heading to your local hardware store to find paint chips that match. Digital colors will change depending on your phone/tablet/computer screen, so be sure to color match with real swatches. Also, I make up all the color names.

Happy Happy Friday!
