muted green

Soft olive tone

A muted green is a green that has been softened or dulled, typically by adding gray, brown, or its complement.

Unlike bright kelly green or vivid emerald, muted greens—sage, olive, moss—feel quieter and more natural: The living room was painted a muted green that worked with everything.
