Excerpt from Floral Decoration

Blue and orange are not slwyys pleasing because the orange is so vivid that to be used satisfactorily it must have a colorless environment but reduce one or both of these colors to a tint and the result will be quite different the trouble is with the brilliancy of the tone rather than with the color itself. (in speaking of tints and shades of s color. Tint means a color to which shite has been added making it lighter. And shade a color to which black has been added making it darker). Analogous colors may for the same reason sometimes be offensive. This is more often the case when the deep shades like red and purple are forced into combination. But so soon as white is introduced into these colors they become more pleasing and the more whits)or in other words the lighter the tint. The more satisfactorily do colors combine which used in deeper hues are continually warring against each other. White has been found so universally to serve as s softener that it has been called the peacsmaker among the flowers. If one imagines a bouquet of red. Purple. Orange and blue. And the same bouquet of light pink. Blue violet and yellow. The part it plays is quite evident.
