Winsor & Newton Floral Watercolour Set is a curated six-colour palette designed as a starting point for botanical and floral subjects, built around genuinely versatile primary, earth, and secondary tones.
Each 5ml tube carries the same professional-grade pigment quality found across the range: finely milled, highly concentrated colour with strong lightfastness. The palette centres on Aureolin Hue and Permanent Rose for delicate petal work, Winsor Violet and Ultramarine (Green Shade) for shadow and depth, and Hooker's Green with Burnt Sienna for foliage and earthy undertones.
While the set is built with floral painting in mind, the underlying colour selection – primary, earth, and secondary tones – means it holds up well as a general-purpose palette for landscapes, still life, and other subjects too.
This dual purpose makes it a genuinely practical set rather than a narrow, single-subject one: it's just as capable outside of botanical work as it is within it.
Who is this for? Artists drawn to floral and botanical subjects, from those just beginning to explore the genre through to experienced painters wanting a dedicated, well-balanced palette. Equally suitable as a broader starting set for anyone new to Professional Watercolour, thanks to its versatile primary and earth-tone foundation.
