How about a nice, buttery yellow...that will not only reflect light but will be a great backdrop for any greenery therein. High gloss, of course, for easy cleaning and good reflecting.

Yellow is a happy color and the plants may think so too!

No, no, no, not yellow, white fly love yellow as a friend of mine found out, they painted the inside of their wooden frame greenhouse yellow, they soon remedied the situation. As long as my greenhouse is functional and does what I want I'll leave the prettying up to others. Love that color of blue tho.

I can vouch for bugs zoning in on yellow.
I have a dandelion yellow Adirondack chair that I bought years ago from a guy who builds them for the farmers markets. I love yellow, and I love my chair, but it is a definite bug magnet. I think if I coated it in Vaseline it would soon be mostly black from the bugs it attracts.

It's due for paint this year, and I am reluctantly going to be painting it something less alluring to bugs.
