Green colors suggest growth, youth, power. Yet pale greens ,such as mint, tell a more compelling story. As pale greens evoke the feeling of being renewed, because they are the first colors we see in springs. Hence, mint give a feeling of reliving youth and energy renewal.

How the color is made: mint is created by mixing almost half way green in RGB with half of that amount of red and blue. Its RGB components: 72/255 red (~28% of red), 125/255 green (~49% of green), 73/255 blue (~29% of blue). Or almost 40% of cyan and yellow (42%), and half of black (51%) in the CMYK color space.

History: like other greens, mint is found in nature; especially at the beginning of spring. As it is dark and pale shade of gray, which suggests the awakening of branches, leaves and grass. Greens have been used through history dating back to ancient Egypt and Greece, they suggest growth and resemble nature itself. In modern times, they are used as main colors for environmentalists, sustainability and, guess what?, green power.
