I heard a few years ago that green had become a neutral color. What is your opinion? Is there a shade of green that is a neutral color? If one were to put a supposed neutral green carpet into their home, would it not be out of date in 5-10 years?
What shade is that neutral green, if there is such a color?

I think a dark gray/green can be neutral. I've seen it on walls and like it.
I think I would go with a dark tan or something in the brown family. I don't know if anything is going to look good in ten years with a house full of kids. But I guess your kids are better behaved than mine.
There are lots of tans and putty colors that have green under tones. I think they can be neutral. And a gray sage green could be the same. In one bedroom of our house we inherited dark forest green carpet. What ever you do don't chose that! :)
Green is also supposed to be a soothing/calming color. I personally love olive green (light or dark) - especially in the kitchen.
I am so bad at these things - horrible!! So sorry.
our carpet is kind of a bluish sage green, and it is really pretty, but it shows everything. I usually like to get all my decor ideas out of pottery barn, you can also go to betterhomesandgardens.com and play with paint and flooring colors, it's lots of fun!
Thank you! It is all so helpful! I don't want carpet that will show everything! For certain!
On Gilmore Girls, at a baby shower they said that "green is the new pink"... I'm not too crazy about green myself anymore. I went through a phase of loving green and wine colors in the 90's but got tired of it.
I have a dark red maroonish rug I didn't wash for over a year because shaking it out was all it needed, it never showed dirt.
