Pine Forest vs Wild Orchid

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Pine Forest reads as green-grey, while Wild Orchid reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pine Forest (LRV 49) reflects noticeably more light than Wild Orchid (LRV 25), a difference of 24 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Pine Forest runs green while Wild Orchid is decidedly purple, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 37.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
