Hibiscus vs Lime Ricky

HibiscusBenjamin MoorevsLime RickyBenjamin MooreΔE 17.3Distinct difference

Hibiscus and Lime Ricky come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. The 9-point LRV gap — 84 for Lime Ricky vs 75 for Hibiscus — means Lime Ricky will open up a space more effectively. Both share a yellow character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 17.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
