Valspar

Celery

6007-10A

Celery is a clear yellow green with plenty of brightness. It is cheerful, but it is still a real color on the wall. A laundry room, pantry, or breakfast nook can handle it better than a formal living room.

Pair it with white painted shelves or pale maple. Warm bulbs may push the yellow side. If nearby counters are gray, check the sample carefully, because cool surfaces can make the green look sharper.

Celery in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
