Invisible green is a green so dark that it renders itself invisible and appears black. So you could call it black but that's not very poetic is it. It's origination is attributed to Humphrey Repton for use on railings in gardens. It was apparently used on the door to No.10 Downing Street. Coincidently, invisible green is also used at Hughenden Manor, the home of Benjamin Disraeli, Prime Minister and resident of No.10 in 1868 and later from 1874 to 1886.
