Leafy Lush
Also known as: Overgrown Temple , Forest Ride , Nature’s Masterpiece , Zelyony Green
Quietly fresh and natural, Leafy Lush is a cool-toned green that earns its keep in finance apps and outdoor gear. Because it leans cool, balancing it with a pink keeps a palette from feeling one-note. It's dark enough to use for text on white backgrounds (6.91:1, passes WCAG AA).

Where Leafy Lush works
- Web & UI: Dark enough for body text and icons on white backgrounds. It passes WCAG AA as-is.
- Interiors: Strong for a whole room, excellent in doses: an accent wall, cabinetry, or a statement chair.
- Fashion: Wears best as the statement piece, a top, scarf, or shoes, against neutral basics.
- Branding: Reads as growth and sustainability, at home in wellness, food, and environmental brands.
- Web & UI: A supporting-cast color for UI: chart fills, tags, and empty-state illustrations, but not text.
- Branding: A secondary brand color by nature: it supports a stronger primary and shines in illustration.
