What color is Little Greene Pale Lime?

Little Greene Pale Lime 70 is a light yellow-green with a softened, slightly chalky cast rather than a sharp citrus brightness. Its gentle green undertone keeps the color fresh, while the noticeable yellow content gives it a warm, daylight-friendly character. On walls, Pale Lime can bring a clean lift to kitchens, breakfast rooms, or children’s spaces, especially alongside off-white trim and pale wood. It also makes a cheerful accent for cabinetry or a painted interior door, paired with muted blues, warm grey, or natural rattan. In lower light, this shade is likely to read more subdued and greened, while brighter daylight brings out its clearer lime-yellow presence.

What are Little Greene Pale Lime undertones?

Pale Lime 70 reads as a mid-light, strongly colored yellow-green, with more presence than a soft pastel. Its undertone appears as a green bias within the yellow family, so it looks less like a warm buttery yellow and more like a clear lime shade. Warm artificial light may bring forward its yellow side, while cooler daylight can make its green cast easier to notice.
