Aloe Vera vs Pine Barrens

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Aloe Vera belongs to the green family and Pine Barrens to the green-yellow family. Aloe Vera (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Pine Barrens (LRV 66), a difference of 20 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 12.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
