Red Cedar vs Begonia

Red CedarPPGvsBegoniaSherwin-WilliamsΔE 5.1Noticeable difference

Where Red Cedar belongs to PPG's range, Begonia is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the pink-red family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Red Cedar (LRV 29) reflects noticeably more light than Begonia (LRV 26), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 5.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. 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.

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