Pine Green #01796F

Pine green draws on the evergreen tree, which keeps its color through winter. That gives the shade a sense of endurance and constancy, and a link to cold-weather landscapes. For many people it also calls up the clean smell of pine, which is why candles and cleaning products use it.

Pines and other evergreens are part of winter holidays in many Western countries, so pine green appears on cards, wrapping paper, and decorations. Its blue lean makes it feel cooler and more wintry than the yellow-greens of spring. In Japan and China, pines are a traditional symbol of long life because they stay green through cold winters.

It also fits outdoor and adventure brands, mountain lodges, and camping gear. People read it as calm and steady, with a hint of crisp air.

Pine green suits outdoor clothing, coffee, cabins and hospitality, and sustainable brands. White text reads well on it, so it works for headers, buttons, and packaging. On white backgrounds it's dark enough for headings and links. Pair it with cream, tan, and warm wood for a cabin feel, or with coral and peach for a brighter, more modern palette. In interiors, pine green suits kitchen cabinets, bathroom tiles, and painted front doors. In social posts, pine green backgrounds with cream type feel calm and seasonal, especially for winter campaigns.
