Sherwin Williams

Garden Spot

SW 6432

Garden Spot is a medium muted green with warm undertones, posting an LRV of 17. This olive-toned green reads as earthy and subdued, making it functional for exterior body colors, mudrooms, or accent walls in rustic or natural schemes. The warm undertone shifts it toward khaki territory under incandescent lighting.

Creamy and Alabaster provide clean, warm contrast on trim and ceilings. Naval delivers strong complementary depth, while Wheat Grass and Sanderling create a nature-derived palette with tonal range that stays cohesive across interior applications.
