A Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) study reports that Britons who describe themselves as having “green fingers” are especially drawn to brightly coloured, vivid flowers. According to the accounts of the research, preferences lean toward saturated hues rather than muted tones. Across the findings highlighted by multiple outlets, red flowers are identified as the most popular choice. The reporting indicates the study is focused on perceived gardening interest or expertise, using the “green fingers” label to describe participants who are more engaged with plants and gardening. While the sources agree on the central results—an overall attraction to vivid, saturated colours and red as the top preference—they provide limited additional detail about the survey size, methods, or the full ranking of other colours. Both outlets attribute the conclusions to the RHS and present the study’s message as a snapshot of flower-buying or viewing preferences among Britons with stronger gardening affinity.
