May Flowers vs Mountain Laurel

May FlowersBenjamin MoorevsMountain LaurelPPGΔE 3.3Noticeable difference

May Flowers is a Benjamin Moore color while Mountain Laurel comes from PPG. Both sit in the pink-red family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. With LRVs of 64 and 65, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. At ΔE 3.3, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
