Turf Green
Retired1969–1972
Similar to the color of a fresh cut lawn, meet Turf Green. One of the final colors to be introduced before production stopped on Fiesta in 1972, it was only produced for three years by The Fiesta Tableware Company. Turf Green is a rich and saturated shade of green that is often used in sports fields, golf courses, and other landscapes where a lush, green appearance is desired.

Opposite on the wheel
Lavender sits roughly opposite Turf Green in hue, which is the highest-contrast pairing the palette offers. The neutrals keep it from shouting.
All green

Three-way split
Turquoise and Mulberry sit about a third of the way around the color wheel from Turf Green in each direction. Evenly spaced hues stay lively without any one taking over.
Next-door hues
These sit within about 55° of Turf Green on the color wheel. Neighbouring hues blend instead of competing, which suits a table you want to feel warm rather than graphic.
