Valspar

Verde

8001-26F

Verde is a golden chartreuse green, earthy but still lively. Use it with care. It can be interesting on a pantry door, breakfast chairs, vintage cabinet, or a small entry that needs color.

At LRV 38, it has enough depth to avoid pastel sweetness. Warm wood makes sense beside it. Cool white trim can turn the yellow-green sharper, so compare with creamier whites.

Verde 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.
