Is there a way to get the color sage by mixing 2 colors together?

Below is the Americolor chart

I would think if you chose a green close to sage, maybe avocado and just used a small amount you may be able to get close to the colour.

I used avocado for the peachy green cake in my photos.

I use leaf green with a little orange ( yes, orange ) added. Looks great and you canadjust with how much you need. Put the green in first though, then just a little orange. I use this color for all my leaves and not thoroughly blended. Gives a nice effect.

I like Wiltons Moss Green or Juniper Green with just a tiny bit of brown.

Thanks everyone...I was just looking at photos and I found the exact shade i am looking for it was in Sweetgurl gallary, it is the one called BC Heart, (beautiful cake) ...I am doing a cake with white icing and white roses, so i am looking for a softer shade of green and this was it...Thanks again to everyone
