Sherwin Williams

Wheat Grass

SW 6408

Wheat Grass is a warm, mid-toned yellow-green from Sherwin-Williams with a notable green undertone that prevents it from reading as a pure yellow. Its hex value is #CBB584 and it has a Light Reflectance Value of 48, placing it in the moderate range where it provides color without excessive brightness. The green undertone gives it an earthy, muted quality compared to cleaner yellows.

It is commonly used in kitchens, dining rooms, and living spaces. Sherwin-Williams Wool Skein and Softer Tan coordinate as lighter neutrals, while Rookwood Dark Green and Sea Salt offer contrasting and analogous pairing.
