Dark Lime vs Lime Green
Dark Lime and Lime Green come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Dark Lime belongs to the yellow family and Lime Green to the green-yellow family. The 7-point LRV gap — 45 for Lime Green vs 37 for Dark Lime — means Lime Green will open up a space more effectively. Where Dark Lime leans yellow, Lime Green reads green and yellow — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 11.2 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Dark Lime vs Lime Green Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Dark Lime on one side and Lime Green on the other.
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.
