Both from Little Greene's palette. Both sit in the green family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (46 vs 48), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Both lean green, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 9.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

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