Timson Green vs Fern green

Timson GreenBenjamin MoorevsFern greenRAL ClassicΔE 6.6Noticeable difference

Timson Green is a Benjamin Moore color while Fern green comes from RAL Classic. These are both green-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-yellow to land. With LRVs of 17 and 16, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. At ΔE 6.6, 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. 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.
