Palmira Green
Palmira Green is a wallpaper with a botanical design worked in green. The motif draws on plant forms rather than geometry, so the repeat reads as irregular growth across the wall, with the green shapes set against the ground in an open arrangement that keeps the surface from looking crowded.
Surface and finish
The finish is matte, so the green stays even under daylight and lamplight instead of flaring in bright patches. The surface is smooth, with no relief to feel, which keeps the outlines of the leaf shapes sharp and makes the wall easy to read from close up as well as from across the room. Smooth, flat paper of this kind also sits well next to other plain surfaces, such as painted woodwork or a tiled splashback. These are premium quality wallpapers. More designs in the same vein are grouped under botanical, and the palm selection covers the same plant subject.
Style and rooms
The tropical character puts this paper alongside rattan and cane furniture, unglazed pottery, dark timber and woven baskets. It also suits exotic schemes built on deeper wall colors elsewhere in the room. White or cream textiles give the green something to work against, while brass or black metal fittings hold their own beside it.

In a living room the pattern carries enough scale to stand behind a sofa without pictures fighting it, and in a bedroom the green keeps the walls quiet while still giving them something to look at.
