A shadowed, soil-dark green with almost no light in it, useful for text and deep backgrounds alike.
Meadow Stem
#3D8B4C
rgb(61, 139, 76)
A confident mid-green pulled from grass and stem, balanced evenly between warm and cool.
Sprout Green
#6EC15C
rgb(110, 193, 92)
The brightest true green in the set, warm enough to feel alive rather than synthetic.
Tender Shoot
#B9E89A
rgb(185, 232, 154)
A pale yellow-green like a leaf still unfurling, best used sparingly for highlights.
The four greens sit close together on the color wheel, so the jump from Deep Fern to Tender Shoot feels like watching a single leaf unfurl rather than switching hues. Meadow Stem and Sprout Green fill the middle distance, giving the set enough steps that nothing feels like a flat gradient. Green in this range signals growth and renewal more than money or envy, and the warmth in Sprout Green keeps things friendly instead of clinical. There's an energy here that skews young—closer to seedlings than old-growth forest.

Garden centers, seed companies, and outdoor gear brands can pull straight from this set without much editing, since the range already covers dark packaging text through pale accent fills. Farmers' markets and CSA boxes benefit from Meadow Stem as a produce-forward mid-tone, while Tender Shoot lifts spring sale banners or Easter-adjacent promotions. Wellness and skincare lines leaning into botanical ingredients could pair Deep Fern typography against a Tender Shoot background. Even outside literal plant contexts, the palette signals freshness for cleaning products, recycling initiatives, or anything positioned as a reset.
Pair Deep Fern with white for body copy and it stays legible at small sizes, while Tender Shoot needs a darker partner—Meadow Stem or true black—to avoid washing out on screen. Use Sprout Green across at least half of any layout, letting the other three serve as supporting text, borders, and highlight moments. In print, Deep Fern converts cleanly to a rich CMYK green, so packaging proofs won't drift far from the on-screen preview. Icons and line art hold up better in Meadow Stem or Deep Fern, since the lighter two colors lose definition at small pixel counts.
