Summer Lime vs Springtime
Where Summer Lime belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Springtime is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the beige-yellow family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Summer Lime (LRV 84) reflects noticeably more light than Springtime (LRV 77), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Summer Lime runs yellow while Springtime is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 5.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
