Numbered and curated — tap any color for its full review, or see it on your own walls in the visualizer.
A deep grey-green at LRV 21 over an olive base, the dark eucalyptus tone specced for cabinets, islands, and moody accent walls..
A grey-leaning sage at LRV 36, muted enough for cabinets and mudrooms where a brighter green would fight the wood tones around it..
A muted mid-tone sage with a grey cast at LRV 49, the coastal green people reach for when a full sage feels too saturated for a bedroom or bath..
Green Trellis is the rare muted green that is actually green..
Pick by Undertone
The most common green-buyer regret is a surprise undertone on the wall. Start from the direction the color leans, not the chip alone.
Light to Dark
The whole Valspar green range by depth. LRV is the number to trust — the same green looks two steps darker on a wall than on a chip.
LRV is light reflectance value, from 0 (black) to 100 (white). It tells you how light or dark a color will feel on the wall, and it is the fastest way to narrow 209 greens down to a few. This slice runs from 5.2 at the darkest to 80.8 at the lightest, so there is a green for every room.
For an airy, soft look, stay high: Apple Slice (6006-9A) at LRV 80.8 or Witch's Brew (V063-1) at 70 will keep a room feeling open. For a calm mid-tone, look around Freshwater Green (V061-2) at 56 or Fresh Mown (V022-2) at 38.9. For drama and depth, drop to Dried Bay Leaf (8003-28F) at 20 or Loire Valley (V060-6) at 14.2, and expect those to read rich and enveloping, especially in lower light.
Valspar Greens by Room
Each room page shows green picks from every US brand side by side — Valspar included — so you can compare in context.
Lighter greens like Apple Slice and Witch's Brew work well in kitchens, bathrooms, and small rooms where you want freshness without going dark. Mid-tones such as Freshwater Green and April Thicket are easy picks for living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices because they hold their color in daylight but never feel heavy.
The deep greens earn their keep as accents and statements. Plus Ultra (8001-29G) at LRV 27, Dried Bay Leaf, and Loire Valley look great on a single feature wall, on cabinets, on a front door, or in a dining room you want to feel cozy at night. In a room with strong natural light, even these darker greens stay readable rather than turning flat.
All 264 Valspar green paint colors
Grouped by undertone (warm → cool)Hex values are display approximations from Valspar's published swatch tools — not guaranteed to match a physical sample under controlled lighting. Order a brand-direct sample before specifying.
Valspar is sold at Lowe's and Ace Hardware, and every color here is mixed to order at the paint counter from a tint base, so there is no fixed stock of any single green. You choose the line by how the paint needs to perform: Ultra for everyday rooms, Signature at around $40 a gallon with ScuffShield for high-traffic spaces, or Reserve at around $52 with an anti-microbial finish. The same green code works across the lines, so you are picking durability, not changing the color.
Because greens read differently between brands, cross-matching matters. Any of these Valspar greens can be color-matched by a paint store into another brand's base, including the featured Kompozit deck, by scanning a sample or entering the values. Note that Valspar is a sibling brand to Pratt & Lambert under the same parent, so their fan decks share a similar warm sensibility and are easy to translate between. When matching, always test a sample on your own wall, since the matched formula can shift slightly from the original swatch.

What Valspar's Green Colors Are Like
Valspar's greens lean warm and livable, which fits the brand's reputation for mid-market neutrals you can actually live with. The 209 greens in this slice run from soft, almost-neutral sages to deep, grounded forest tones, and most have a friendly undertone rather than a cold, clinical one.
You can see the spread in the real examples. Apple Slice (6006-9A) is a bright, near-white green that reads almost like a tinted neutral, while Loire Valley (V060-6) and Dried Bay Leaf (8003-28F) sit at the deep, moody end. Names like Fresh Mown (V022-2) and April Thicket (5003-3C) tell you what to expect: garden greens that feel natural, not loud.
Pairing Trim, Ceiling, and Coordinating Colors
Warm greens love warm whites. Pair a soft sage with a creamy off-white trim rather than a stark blue-white, and the green will feel intentional instead of accidental. A plain white ceiling keeps things simple, but a barely-tinted warm white overhead can make a mid-green room feel finished.
For coordinating colors, lean on Valspar's well-known warm neutrals. Safari Beige and Gray Silt both sit comfortably next to these greens as a larger surface or adjacent room, and natural wood tones, brass, and unbleached linen all flatter the family. If you want contrast, pair a light green wall with one of the deep greens from this slice, like Loire Valley, on a built-in or door.
The Questions Everyone Asks
What is the most popular Valspar green paint color?
Warm Eucalyptus (8004-28F) — A deep grey-green at LRV 21 over an olive base, the dark eucalyptus tone specced for cabinets, islands, and moody accent walls. Seaside Fog and Sprig of Sage and Green Trellis round out the short list most people choose from.
How many green paint colors does Valspar have?
This slice of Valspar's deck has 209 colors in the green family. They range from a near-white green like Apple Slice (6006-9A) at LRV 80.8 down to deep, shadowy greens like Loire Valley (V060-6) at LRV 14.2, so you have options for both bright and moody rooms.
What is the lightest and darkest Valspar green?
In this green slice, the lightest reading is around LRV 80.8, shown by Apple Slice (6006-9A), and the darkest sits at about LRV 5.2. Loire Valley (V060-6) at LRV 14.2 and Dried Bay Leaf (8003-28F) at LRV 20 are good examples of the deep end if you want a rich, enveloping look.
Where can I buy Valspar green paint?
Valspar is sold at Lowe's and at Ace Hardware. Each color is mixed to order at the paint counter from a tint base, so you pick the color and the line, and the store tints it on the spot. Choose Ultra, Signature with ScuffShield, or Reserve with its anti-microbial finish based on how durable you need the paint to be.
Which Valspar green works best in a dark or low-light room?
In low light, lean into the darker greens instead of fighting them. Plus Ultra (8001-29G) at LRV 27, Dried Bay Leaf at LRV 20, and Loire Valley at LRV 14.2 look intentional and cozy in dim rooms, while a very light green can read gray and washed out. Always test a sample at night under your actual bulbs before committing.
What trim and ceiling colors go with Valspar greens?
Warm greens pair best with warm whites rather than cool blue-whites, so a creamy off-white trim usually looks more deliberate. A plain or barely-tinted warm white ceiling keeps the room calm. For adjacent walls, Valspar's warm neutrals like Safari Beige and Gray Silt sit naturally beside these greens.
Can a Valspar green be matched to another brand?
Yes. Any paint store can color-match a Valspar green into another brand's base, including the featured Kompozit deck, by scanning a sample or entering the color values. Because matched formulas can shift a little from the original swatch, brush a sample on your own wall and check it in daylight and at night before buying gallons.
