Light Green vs Spring Iris

Light GreenBenjamin MoorevsSpring IrisBenjamin MooreΔE 32.6 — Very different colors

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Light Green reads as green-yellow, while Spring Iris reads as blue-purple — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Light Green (LRV 79) reflects noticeably more light than Spring Iris (LRV 65), a difference of 14 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Light Green runs green while Spring Iris is decidedly blue and purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 32.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. 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.
