Spring Green color meaning
Spring Green is a bold and energetic green — a cool color at 50% lightness and 100% saturation. Like other greens, it is linked with nature, growth and balance. It is the color the eye finds most restful, which is why it signals health, freshness and "go".
Because it is bold and energetic, spring green works best for logos, buttons, highlights, sports kit and anything that should grab attention. As text on white it would be too faint (1.3:1), so use it for fills and backgrounds and put black text on top (15.6:1).

Spring Green pairs well with Rose, Lime, Aqua and Linen: Rose sits close to its opposite on the color wheel for strong contrast, Lime and Aqua are neighbors that keep a scheme calm, and Linen gives the eye somewhere to rest.
