A delicate aged green
This fresh and incredibly soft green is reminiscent of the pigment green earth. With its blue undertone it creates the softest of atmospheres, being less intense and cooler than Cooking Apple Green but fresher and less grey than Ball Green.

Cool Grey Green
I used this colour on walls in a bright west facing bedroom.
It's a soft shade of grey green, and brought a calm and almost masculine feel to the room. I used it with All White and Shaded White on woodwork, and the colours go really well together.
It looks great with natural tones (wood etc). It can look a bit dull if it doesn't have a brighter colour against it to lift it (eg on bedding/lamps etc). I found rose pink looks great with it, as do strong bright blues and pinkish heatherish purple. On the other hand, bright greens look awful with it.

The ideal backdrop
This is the most gorgeous grey-green: soft, subtle, fresh. I used it in the estate emulsion finish on three walls in a small bedroom and find it intensely relaxing and easy to live with. It's the ideal backdrop to art and patterned fabrics, which Vert de Terre sets off to perfection. Dark furniture looks especially good against it. It works well with soft furnishings in reds, corals, and deep blue-greens. Really -- you can't go wrong with Vert de Terre. I paired it with soft, creamy New White on the fourth wall. Highly recommended!
