Our Take on Pantone’s Color of the Year: Why We’re Not Afraid to Break the Mold

Pantone released its Color of the Year, and my first reaction was a whole internal debate about color theory that took me straight back to art class. I caught myself thinking, “White is the absence of color… wait, no… that’s black… white is actually every color combined.”

Once that clicked, something else did, too.

Maybe that’s exactly why this year’s pick is stirring people up. White isn’t empty, it’s the full spectrum hiding in plain sight. And when Pantone dropped their selection, the internet took it and ran wild. Designers are dissecting it. Creatives are remixing it. People are arguing about the symbolism like it’s election season.

And honestly? We love that energy.
Because conversation means culture is paying attention.

But here’s our spin on it:

Blessings Grow Meadows was never built on neutral tones or safe choices. We aren’t a “white” brand, not in color, not in personality, not in spirit. We’re sunshine yellows, petal pinks, courageous corals, sky blues, and every bold bloom that refuses to blend into the background.

Our flowers sing! They celebrate.
They show up with full personality, not “polite minimalism.”

Where Pantone offers a foundation, we offer the explosion of color that comes after.
Where white holds the potential of every hue… our farm brings those hues to life.

And maybe that’s the real story here.
This year, the design world is wrestling with a shade that represents possibility. A blank page. A reset. A moment before the brush touches the canvas.

But at Blessings Grow Meadows, we’re stepping boldly into the full spectrum.
We’re celebrating color, individuality, locally grown beauty, and the joy of standing out in a world obsessed with blending in.

So while the Pantone Color of the Year may reflect the calm before the bloom…
we’re here for the bloom itself.
Bright. Loud. Joyful. Unapologetically unique.

If you’re craving color that actually means something: color with roots, purpose, and a story, come see what’s growing here in Georgia. From local bouquets to vibrant gifts, every stem and every shade is chosen with intention.

This year, let the world debate “white.”
We’ll be over here living in technicolor.
