This is a statement first and a wall color second. Vista Paint lists it as Chic Shade (0745).
At chroma 20.6 it will not sit quietly next to another strong color. On one wall of an otherwise neutral room, this reads as a deliberate choice rather than an overwhelming one.
The yellow-green is more noticeable under cool, daylight-balanced bulbs than under standard warm ones, which tend to mute it. 28.0 on the light-reflectance scale is unremarkable on its own; the chroma is what actually drives how this color behaves.
This is one of the colors that can change identity with the light - somewhere between green and yellow, and near enough to the line between them (6°) that both readings are fair. Worth checking before committing to a full wall: purples nearby - in a floor, a rug, a piece of furniture - will read as a clash here, not a complement, since the two colors sit at opposite ends of the spectrum.
The lighter the trim beside this, the more it will seem to glow - a side effect of the light-reflectance gap rather than anything special about the trim color. The safest multi-color scheme moves from this dark wall to a noticeably lighter secondary tone, then to a near-white ceiling - three genuinely different depths rather than three shades of the same idea (LRV 28.0, 57 and 85, if you're matching by the numbers).
If a second wall color is wanted in the same room, Behr Mirror Ball keeps the jump obvious rather than muddy (roughly 38 LRV points from this one). A flatter finish keeps this much color from creating harsh reflections.
Behr Aloe Plant (BIC-26) runs close enough - delta-E 1.88 - that swapping brands should not change how the room looks. Only 1 other-brand color land within delta-E 2 of this one, which makes it comparatively unusual.
It is lighter than 27 percent of the Vista Paint range. Vista Paint lists it in the C codes, alongside 1,421 other colors.
