What color is Dulux Green Parrot 1?

Dulux Green Parrot 1 50GY 39/536 is a clear mid-tone green with a noticeable yellow cast, giving it the fresh, leafy character of new foliage. Its fairly bright saturation keeps it lively on a wall without reading like a neon or acid green. In strong daylight, Green Parrot 1 will show its crisp yellow-green side most clearly, while softer or shaded light can make it appear a little deeper and more grounded. It suits garden-facing kitchens, utility rooms, children’s spaces, and painted exterior details where a clean hit of color is welcome. Pair this shade with warm white trim, pale wood, woven natural fibres, or muted clay and terracotta accents to offset its brightness.
