Valspar

Green as a Bean

M110

Green as a Bean is more golden tan than green on the wall. The name overpromises green. Its mid value gives enough body for a dining area, hallway, or painted furniture piece without making the room dark.

The color likes warm woods and textured fabrics. In strong sun, the yellow side comes forward. Cooler gray floors can make the warmth look more obvious, so test a board near the floor line.
