Green heart Emoji

Smileys

A vibrant green heart icon with a glossy finish. It mimics the standard red heart shape but features a distinct, grassy lime hue.

Usage Context

Used to express affection with a more relaxed or platonic vibe compared to the traditional ❤️. It is frequently used to signal support for environmental causes, celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, or show loyalty to sports teams and K-pop groups, such as NCT, who utilize green as a brand color.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2010 as part of Emoji 1.0, the green heart was introduced to diversify the existing collection of heart colors, allowing users to move beyond the singular red heart and convey specific meanings tied to color psychology.
