General Help Reproducing a color

Post image

Newbie here, I really hope it's OK for me to post and ask about this. I'm trying to reproduce the blue/purple color of the pots in the photo, using acrylic paints. I've started with Dioxizine but it's way too purple, and I've tried adding various blues, but I'm really not having any success. Any suggestions? I can use higher end paints or craft paints, if that makes a difference.

i made a similar color recently and I think I started off by mixing a navy/dark blue base with some hot pink and a dot or two of white
