Palm

Lighter, cooler yellow-green for airy UI accents
About Palm
Palm looks like that soft green you see on the edge of a palm frond under dusty afternoon light. It's clearly greener than Brass, but it doesn't carry Brass's metallic, warm undertone. Compared with Estragon, Palm feels a touch drier and more muted, closer to a honeyed cast than the cooler, herb-wall calm.
I use Palm when the UI needs emphasis without turning into "leaf punch." It's the one you reach for in dashboards and finance apps when status chips, filters, and section dividers should feel settled and readable. In publishing workflows it makes headers feel consistent across light layouts, and in logistics or retail ops it works well for labels and secondary buttons where you want green that blends more than it shouts.
Quirk: next to very cool gray panels, Palm can look slightly yellowed. If that happens, I bump the contrast with a crisper dark text and keep richer green accents away from the same row.
