sage green

Dusty botanical hue

Sage green is a muted, grayish-green color resembling the leaves of the sage plant—soft and dusty rather than vivid.

It's popular in interior design and fashion for its calming, earthy quality: The kitchen cabinets were painted sage green.

The color suggests natural elegance without being bold.
