Alligator Green vs Lapland
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Alligator Green reads as beige-green, while Lapland reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Lapland (LRV 42) reflects noticeably more light than Alligator Green (LRV 23), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean yellow, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 16.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
