What color is Valspar UK Peppermint Patch?

Valspar UK Peppermint Patch W40e is a pale, muted green with a noticeable greyed, yellow-leaning cast that keeps it soft rather than sugary. Its high lightness makes it a gentle choice for larger walls, especially in kitchens, bedrooms, or hallways where a clean but not stark backdrop is wanted. In bright daylight, this color can read as a lightly dusty green, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring out its subdued sage and cream-like notes. Pair Peppermint Patch with warm white trim, natural oak, woven linen, and aged brass for a grounded look. It also sits well beside deeper olive greens or soft charcoal accents when the room needs more definition.
