Valspar

Shepherd's Green

M207

Valspar Shepherd's Green is a deep grassy olive with a strong yellow-green base. The yellow-olive base gives this deep green a traditional garden-room mood. The shade suits exterior doors, cabinetry, garden rooms, and furniture where green should feel traditional.

Low light may deepen it toward moss. Let cream, dark bronze, or natural leather reinforce the base. Avoid cool blue-gray walls unless a stronger contrast is part of the plan.

Shepherd's Green 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.
