Dwarf SprucePPGvsHorseradishPPGΔE 40.3Very different colors

Dwarf Spruce and Horseradish come from the same PPG collection. Hue-wise, Dwarf Spruce belongs to the green-grey family and Horseradish to the beige-yellow family. The 60-point LRV gap — 81 for Horseradish vs 21 for Dwarf Spruce — means Horseradish will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 40.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

Digital color is approximate.

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