Cedar PathBenjamin MoorevsPeale GreenBenjamin MooreΔE 11.2 — Distinct difference

Cedar Path and Peale Green come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Both sit in the green-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 9-point LRV gap — 23 for Cedar Path vs 14 for Peale Green — means Cedar Path will open up a space more effectively. Both share a green character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 11.2 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

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.
