Ornamental Grass

Strong enough that it sets the palette for the room, not the other way around. 7837 in the Vista Paint range.

Chroma 43.1 is high enough that the color will bounce onto light surfaces, so expect it everywhere, not only on the wall. Ideal for a single accent wall or a small room where you want to commit.

This is a color worth testing in the specific room it is going in - cool colors shift more than warm ones do between north and south walls. LRV 28.0 tells you how much light comes back, which matters less here than how much color comes with it.

Not quite yellow, not quite orange - this sits right where the two meet, so the room's own lighting ends up deciding which one you actually see. Worth checking before committing to a full wall: blues and cool greys 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).

Benjamin Moore Angel's Wings pairs well as a second surface - close enough in feel to belong in the same room, far enough in lightness to read as two distinct walls (about 30.4 points apart on the reflectance scale). Matte suits a color this strong - a glossier sheen would turn every light source in the room into a visible hotspot on the wall.

For anyone tied to a different brand, Benjamin Moore Lichen Green (2150-20) is the nearest stand-in, at a delta-E of 1.56. 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 K codes, alongside 1,318 other colors.
