Viridian is a blue-green pigment, a hydrated oxide of chromium, of medium saturation and relatively dark in value. It is composed more of green than blue. Viridian takes its name from the Latin viridis meaning "green".
Before Windows 2000 adopted Teal as default desktop color, viridian was the default color for Windows 9x operating systems.
