Pastel Green
A vibrant and luminous yellow-leaning green
Pastel Green is a high-key, luminous shade that leans toward yellow rather than blue. Because it has such high visibility, #77dd77 works best as a vibrant accent color rather than a large background fill. It pairs beautifully with dark charcoals or deep plums to create strong contrast. Black text is perfectly readable on this hex code, making it a functional choice for UI elements.
