Hey Lexy,

Are you trying to make the h1 color green? If so you want to set out your style tag like so:

<style>
h1 {
  color: green;
}
</style>

Note that the element you are trying to target should be outside of the curly braces, like in the example above. Also make sure that you are using a colon to separate the property (color) from the value (green).
