Italy's tricolore green is more specific than just "green": since 2006 the official shade has been defined as a fern green, a cool, slightly blue-leaning green rather than a warm grass green.
The hoist band, the stripe next to the pole, scores at #009246, or HSB(149°, 100%, 57%): fully saturated, medium in brightness, with a hue that sits between pure green and cyan.
Most players warm it toward a grass or lime green, or darken it into a bottle green. The correct green is vivid but mid-bright, and it leans cool, toward emerald.
Anchor on the single green band beside the white and red. If you picture the whole flag, the green should look fresh and slightly blue, not olive and not neon.
How to remember this flag color
A short memory plan before you play the round.
- Set a green hue that leans toward cyan (around 149°), not toward yellow-grass.
- Keep saturation high but hold brightness in the middle, not dark.
- If it looks like a lawn or lime, cool the hue toward emerald.
- If it looks like a dark bottle green, raise the brightness.
