The colors are sky blue, bright blue, spring green, lavender, white, a bit of yellow, a bit of chartreuse, and an abundance of magenta and purple speckles.
As for the name, the colors remind me of a stunningly beautiful garden, and that made me think of the box of soil and seeds that Galadriel gave Sam in The Lord of the Rings which he used to replenish the Shire.
I dyed this yarn on Squoosh DK using my Splashed and Speckled method, which means each skein contains the same colors but in different places, making each one unique.

YARN SWATCH
I included two photos that show a hat I knit up in this colorway using Wonderful Worsted. It should give you an idea of how the colorway will work up, but keep in mind that how it looks will vary a lot depending on the pattern, the yarn base, and even the individual skein.
