What color is Dulux Green Ivy?

Dulux Green Ivy 10GY 49/081 is a muted grey-green with a noticeable yellowed, olive-leaning cast that keeps it from reading cold. Its mid-light value and softened saturation give walls a gently weathered look rather than a sharp botanical green. In daylight, this color can appear pale and mineral-like, while warmer evening bulbs tend to bring forward its khaki undertone. Green Ivy suits kitchens, hallways, and living rooms, especially alongside off-white trim, natural oak, aged brass, and linen upholstery. It also makes a grounded choice for cabinetry or a front door when paired with warm stone, clay, or charcoal details.

What are Dulux Green Ivy undertones?

Green Ivy is a mid-light, very muted khaki beige. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.
