Color choices
Tree roots can begin with earthy browns and warm ochres, while the trunk uses a lighter tan for contrast. Fill the canopy with layered greens, then choose pink, yellow, or purple for the flowers and leaves. Give the worms bright accents against muted soil, and use soft grays on the stones. A darker tunnel edge can help the burrowing animal and roots stand out.
Root Color Paths
Follow each root from the trunk to its tip with repeating color patterns, then echo those colors on the worms and stones.
