Dunn‑Edwards color · mixed in Benjamin Moore
Benjamin Moore already has the formula for Fresh Cut Grass, so we mix the exact color at our North Scottsdale counter, in the line the surface needs. Same color, better paint. If you’d rather choose one of Benjamin Moore’s own colors, the five closest are below. Fresh Cut Grass is currently approved in 1 Arizona HOA scheme we track.
About this color
Sheen: Matte or eggshell on walls; satin holds up better on garage doors and high-touch trim. Flat on exterior stucco.
DE5599 Fresh Cut Grass is a mid-tone, saturated green (LRV ≈ 46). Mid-tones are where most Arizona HOA bodies land, and where beige, tan, taupe and warm-gray exteriors blend with the Sonoran landscape. At LRV 46 it is above all three municipal overlay caps (Scottsdale ESL 35, Paradise Valley Hillside 38, Scottsdale Foothills 40), so it suits lots outside those overlays. Mid-tones run slightly warmer in west sun than lighter bodies, so we use Element Guard or Regal Select for any south or west elevation.

Which Benjamin Moore line?
Front doors and shutters take the most direct sun and the most handling, and soft gloss is the finish we put on them. A deep or saturated color is what fades first, so on a door that faces west or south we reach for Aura Exterior, which locks the color into the film. On a shaded entry, Regal Select Exterior holds it well. Bring the Benjamin Moore code from any of the five swatches above and we’ll mix that exact color at the counter.
