I'm not in the US, so I looked online for Behr "Young Bamboo" and I can't find it. Are you sure you have the name right? Could you post an image of the colour here?

Sorry it is Young Bamboo. The painter took the swatch with him.

Oh, Du Toit? As in S African Du Toit?

Yes. We moved from SA in 2001. Rina also sounds Afrikaans too. Thank you for the advice. I think we will keep the garage doors white for the moment. We can always change it later if need be. I wish you cohld see this house. It's the closest to a South African style house I have ever seen on the East Coast.

It looks lovely -- and what a setting, with those trees. Yes, my father was Afrikaans.

If you paint the door you'll get the better results

I actually don't want to paint the house, only the shutters, the trip and/or the garage doors. The color is right though.

Er, I don't know what "trip" means -- that mansard-type roof surface, maybe?

Apologies, trip should be trim, fascia , woodwork around the roof, whatever it is referred to. Please refer to my original question.

I think she meant trim.

Okay, got it. Like this, and this?

I prefer the white garage.

Thanks for posting that. It looks delightful.

Cute -- sort of looks like windows. Glad you didn't paint the whole thing, but this seems fun.
