Apologies for the previous incorrect response. Yes, the INCORRECTLY punctuated sentence is:
Reesa is wearing a dark, green sweater.
The comma between "dark" and "green" is unnecessary and incorrect. When two adjectives are used to describe a noun, they should not be separated by a comma unless the order can be reversed without changing the meaning. In this case, "dark green" is a compound adjective describing the sweater. Therefore, the correct punctuation should be: "Reesa is wearing a dark green sweater."
