Help me pick a Cuprinol garden colour

Hello,
I have bought some long wooden Unpainted planters to go down the right hand side of the garden next to fence.
As you can see it is very dominated by dark brown fence and decking and green posts (fairly recently refreshed by husband so can't change). Should I follow theme and paint them green or brown or pick a lighter colour from Cuprinol like natural stone or lighter green? I'd like to do the chicken coop in chosen colour too.
Any suggestions welcome
Smile

I have the light green, it looks duck egg blue in some lights.

Have you got the colour chart?

Not very keen on blue George so perhaps avoid that one. Thanks tho. I've looked on Internet at chart and I love muted greens but wonder if garden needs brightening up

Personally I wouldn't go with another green shade but I do think you could do a lighter stone type shade and it would blend really well.

Thanks Nigel I'm going to do it! (Just needed a nudge)

Cream would look lovely. Love your garden too.

I'm in love with the pink shade and am going to paint my bench in it soon. Want to get some pink plant pots too to bring it all together

Choose something that goes with the colours of your planting scheme. Otherwise it's like painting a room without any regard to the colour of your furniture that goes in it!!

I think darker, richer shades can look lovely against light colours.
