#55AD51 sits at 117° on the color wheel, placing it in the green family of the cool half of the spectrum. With 36% saturation and 50% lightness, it reads as a softly muted, balanced tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 85, 173, 81 produces a 7.48:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #55AD51 is a clear variant of CSS sea green — about 52 units away from #2E8B57. Designers reach for green hues at this saturation when the brief calls for a conversational, mid-energy register, and at this lightness when they want a present, comfortable mid-canvas voice. On screen the cool cast tends to pair best with warm neutrals in the 25°-45° range to add life.
