# Behr Simply Sage

Source: [https://plan-home.com/color/behr-simply-sage](https://plan-home.com/color/behr-simply-sage)

Behr Simply Sage PPU10-16 is a light, muted green with a noticeable gray cast and a soft yellow-olive undertone. Its low saturation keeps it from reading like a bright botanical green, giving walls a quietly weathered, mineral-like appearance instead. In north-facing or dim rooms, this shade may appear more gray, while warm daylight can bring out its subtle sage-green character. It suits bedrooms, kitchens, and painted cabinetry, especially alongside warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, and linen textiles. For contrast, pair Simply Sage with charcoal, deep brown, or a muted clay-toned accent.
