The peaks of the emission from the ionized vaporof Mercury are:

-- 184.5 nm . . . UV-C

-- 253.7 nm . . . UV-C

-- 365.4 nm . . . UV-A

-- 404.7 nm . . . violet

-- 435.8 nm . . . blue

-- 546.1 nm . . . green

-- 578.2 nm . . . yellow-orange.

The quantum wavelength of the lamp itself is much shorter than any of those.
