Glidden

Green Tea Leaf

PPG1128-5

Texture helps this shade. Green Tea Leaf is a muted gray-green with an herbal cast and medium lightness. It can support full walls in a bedroom, study, or kitchen without becoming too colorful.

The shade stays subdued. Natural oak keeps the room grounded, and a creamier trim white softens the herbal cast. If used beside cool white tile, the green may look more muted, so add texture for warmth.
