What color is Dulux Celery Leaf?
Dulux Celery Leaf is a light, softened yellow-green with a creamy cast that keeps it from reading too sharp. Its pale value gives walls a gently sunlit look, especially in rooms with ample daylight, while cooler artificial light can bring out its greener side. Use it in kitchens, breakfast nooks, or children’s rooms where a fresh but muted color feels more appropriate than a bold lime. Pair Celery Leaf with warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or soft clay-toned accents to reinforce its mellow warmth. It can also make a cheerful choice for painted cabinetry or a small accent wall where deeper greens might feel too heavy.
