Introduction
Use flower:colour=* to indicate the dominant color associated with the flowers of a plant species, whether it is a tree (natural=tree), a shrub (natural=shrub), or a plant (natural=plant). For example, the color typically associated with the flowers of the species 
Chilean myrtle in bloom is white.
“‘Important note: The template uses the British spelling of “colour” and not “color” (Americanized spelling). See the deprecated tags below.’”
How to map
The value must be:
- an RGB color code (hexadecimal triplet), for example #FFFFFF for white. This RGB code can describe approximately 16 million different colors.
- A shorter RGB code with only 3 hexadecimal digits is also possible: it is equivalent to the 6-digit RGB codes in which each of the digits (of the 3-digit code) is duplicated (see the examples in the table below). This short code (also standard in HTML and CSS) allows for the description of 4,096 different colors.
The following 16 “basic color names” (standardized in CSS for use in HTML and SVG) are recommended for better compatibility with various map renderers.
| Sample | RGB hexadecimal | W3C color name | Sample | RGB hexadecimal | W3C color name | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| #000000 (o #000) | black | #FFFFFF (o #FFF) | white | |||
| #808080 | gray (o grey) | #C0C0C0 | silver | |||
| #800000 | maroon | #FF0000 (o #F00) | red | |||
| #808000 | olive | #FFFF00 (o #FF0) | yellow | |||
| #008000 | green | #00FF00 (o #0F0) | lime | |||
| #008080 | teal | #00FFFF (o #0FF) | aqua (o cyan) | |||
| #000080 | navy | #0000FF (o #00F) | blue | |||
| #800080 | purple | #FF00FF (o #F0F) | fuchsia (o magenta) |
The CSS Color Level 3 module has specified a broader list of color keywords, which is supported by major browsers.
