What kind of green is Seaweed Green?
Every color has a place in the standard vocabulary. This is Seaweed Green's, measured rather than asserted.
Seaweed Green's Munsell numbers: hue 2.5G, value 6.2 (how light), chroma 9.2 (how vivid). That places it in ISCC-NBS block strong yellowish green, one of 267 named ranges the standard sorts every color into. Chroma 9.2 is moderate. Clearly colored, but not so saturated it fights the colors around it.
There's still some room before it hits the edge of what your screen can show for this hue. It could go a little more saturated and stay in gamut.
Munsell coordinates and block from the ISCC-NBS system, computed by Rhapsody's own renotation inversion.
