greensyellow

Greensyellow is a descriptive color term used to denote a hue that sits between green and yellow on the color spectrum. It is not an official color name in standard catalogs such as web colors or paint brands, but it is commonly used by designers to specify a bright, saturated yellow-green.

Greensyellow spans a range from lime-like to chartreuse-like tones, typically with a strong green component and a significant yellow influence, producing a vibrant, high-saturation hue. In digital color spaces it may correspond to RGB values roughly in the mid-to-high green range, with red and blue lower, though exact values vary by device.

In usage, the term is employed in design, art, and fashion to convey vitality and energy and is effective for high-visibility applications and branding associated with freshness or environmental themes. Reproduction across devices and prints can be inconsistent, so calibrating displays or color swatches is common.

Variants and related hues include lime, chartreuse, and yellow-green, with neon versions used for safety contexts when high visibility is required.

The name greensyellow is a portmanteau of green and yellow, reflecting its position on the spectrum rather than a formal standard.
