Taffy TwistPPGvsFreshwater GreenValsparΔE 9.6Noticeable difference

Where Taffy Twist belongs to PPG's range, Freshwater Green is a Valspar color. Taffy Twist reads as green, while Freshwater Green reads as green-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (57 vs 56), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. The ΔE 9.6 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.
