Studies have shown that contrasting color palette is the best way to grab a viewer's attention.

In the RGB color wheel, these two analogous colors occur to the right and left of Phlox with a 30° separation on either side. An analogous color palette is extremely soothing to the eyes and works wonders if your main color is soft or pastel.
Split-Complementary Palette
As per the RGB color wheel, the split-complementary colors of Phlox (#DF00FF) are #A0FF00 (Spring Bud) and #00FF60 (Guppie Green). A split-complementary color palette consists of the main color along with those on either side (30°) of the complementary color. Based on our research, usage of split-complementary palettes is on the rise online, especially in graphics and web sites designs. It may be because it is not as contrasting as the complementary color palette and, hence, results in a combination which is pleasant to the eyes.
Triadic Palette
Phlox triadic color palette has three colors each of which is separated by 120° in the RGB wheel. Thus, #FFDF00 (Golden Yellow) and #00FFDF (Turquoise Blue) along with #DF00FF create a stunning and beautiful triadic palette with the maximum variation in hue and, therefore, offering the best possible contrast when taken together.
Tetradic Palette
The tetradic palette of Phlox has four colors - #FFDF00 (Golden Yellow), #20FF00 (Harlequin) and #0020FF (Blue) in addition to the base color (#DF00FF). A tetradic color palette is complex and, in most cases, should not be used off-the-shelf. We suggest tweaking the colors slightly to achieve desired results.
Square Palette
Phlox square color palette has #FF6000 (Vivid Orange), #20FF00 (Harlequin) and #00A0FF (Vivid Cerulean). Quite like triadic, the hues in a square palette are at the maximum distance from each other, which is 90°.
Note: For several colors purposes, a square palette may look much better than the tetrad color palette.
Phlox Color Rainbow Palette
Our Phlox rainbow color palette is based on the RGB model and consists of 7 colors, just like the traditional rainbow. You might not see a lot of variation in color, especially if the chosen color is dark or extremely light. However, this can lead interesting rainbow palettes that are faded, soft, pastel or dull.
