Peachy keen

I saw this stunning specimen of Schlumbergera truncata while shopping for a holiday door wreath last Sunday. I decided that I didn't really need a wreath and bought this instead. Happy holidays!

Their color variations really light up this time of year, when little else blooms..

"Peach Fuzz" is Pantone's 2024 color of the year.

As is its annual practice, Pantone has picked its color of the year for 2024—one intended to give you the warm fuzzies.

Pantone 13-1023 Peach Fuzz is a pinkish-orange hue that conjures feelings of tenderness and compassion, while conveying a sense of caring and community. At the same time, noted the color giant, the shade evokes poetic and romantic tones as much as a modern sensibility.
