What color is Dulux Bamboo Stem?

Dulux Bamboo Stem 30GY 41/173 is a muted green with a noticeable yellow cast, giving it an earthy, leaf-like character rather than a crisp mint or blue sage. Its mid-depth tone feels grounded on larger walls, where it can read as a softened olive-green in daylight. In lower or warmer artificial light, the yellow-green undertone is likely to become more apparent, adding a gently organic look. Use it in kitchens, studies, utility rooms, or garden-facing living spaces alongside warm white trim, natural oak, woven textures, and aged brass. Bamboo Stem also makes a considered choice for cabinetry or a painted exterior detail when paired with stone, cream, or deeper charcoal-green accents.
