Where Silver Lichen belongs to Dulux's range, Tracery II is a Little Greene color. Hue-wise, Silver Lichen belongs to the grey family and Tracery II to the greige-grey family. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (46 vs 46), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions.

Digital color is approximate.

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