What color is Little Greene Phthalo Green?
Little Greene Phthalo Green 199 is a clear, lively mid-tone green with a noticeable yellow cast that keeps it bright rather than blue or forest-like. Its fresh saturation makes it well suited to a kitchen, utility room, children’s space, or a garden-facing room that can handle a more energetic wall color. In strong daylight, this shade reads crisp and leafy; under warmer artificial light, its yellow-green character becomes more pronounced. Use Phthalo Green on cabinetry, a painted door, or a single accent wall alongside warm white, pale wood, rattan, and natural linen. For contrast, pair it with soft blush, muted terracotta, or deep charcoal details.

What are Little Greene Phthalo Green undertones?
Phthalo Green appears as a mid-light, strongly saturated green with a bright, clear character. In the supplied digital sample, it leans slightly toward yellow rather than blue, so its relative undertone reads as a yellow-leaning green rather than a cool blue-green. Warm artificial light may bring out more of that yellow influence, while cool daylight may make the green look cleaner and a little crisper.
