Fresh GrassBenjamin MoorevsPale CeleryBenjamin MooreΔE 34.6Very different colors

Fresh Grass and Pale Celery come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Hue-wise, Fresh Grass belongs to the green-yellow family and Pale Celery to the beige-yellow family. The 34-point LRV gap — 81 for Pale Celery vs 46 for Fresh Grass — means Pale Celery will open up a space more effectively. Where Fresh Grass leans green, Pale Celery reads yellow — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 34.6 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
