Sherwin Williams Wild Lime SW 9668 is a light, muted yellow-green with a soft khaki cast rather than a sharp citrus look. Its high lightness and restrained saturation give it a gently weathered appearance, sitting between creamy straw and pale olive. In bright daylight, Wild Lime can read cleaner and more yellow, while lower or warmer light brings forward its subdued green-beige side. It suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, mudrooms, or painted cabinetry where a quiet touch of color is wanted without a strong contrast. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, and deeper olive or charcoal accents for definition.
