red and green
Traffic light pair
Red and green is a color combination strongly associated with Christmas in Western culture, evoking holiday decorations, wrapping paper, and festive imagery: The whole house was done up in red and green.
The phrase also describes a common form of color blindness—red-green color blindness—where these hues are difficult to distinguish.
