forest green

Pine needle shade

Forest green is a dark, muted green suggesting the deep shade of dense woodland—darker and less vivid than grass or lime green.

The color appears frequently in outdoor gear, military uniforms, and institutional settings: a forest green sweater, forest green paint.

Sometimes shortened to forest: The car comes in forest or navy.
