What color is Dulux Putting Green?

Dulux Putting Green is a muted, mid-light green with a noticeable yellow cast, giving it the look of softened foliage rather than a crisp botanical green. Its low saturation keeps the color gentle on broad walls, where it can read as a dusty sage-green in daylight and slightly warmer under incandescent lighting. Use it in kitchens, garden rooms, or bedrooms where a grounded natural color is wanted without making the room feel dark. Pale cream trim, warm white linens, oak, rattan, and aged brass all complement its earthy direction. For more contrast, pair Putting Green with charcoal, deep olive, or a muted terracotta accent.
