Yarrow vs Lemon yellow
Where Yarrow belongs to PPG's range, Lemon yellow is a RAL Classic color. Yarrow reads as beige, while Lemon yellow reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Lemon yellow (LRV 48) reflects noticeably more light than Yarrow (LRV 41), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 6.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
