Valspar

Dry Leaf

3008-8A

Dry Leaf is a muted straw-tan that leans earthy rather than fresh green. Yellow drives it. The color can settle a hallway or breakfast nook with natural wood nearby, and it suits woven textures better than glossy modern finishes.

In the middle range, it will not act like a pale neutral. Add clean trim for definition. In dim corners, expect a quieter khaki note.

Dry Leaf 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.
