Broccoflower vs Nurture Green
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Broccoflower reads as green-yellow, while Nurture Green reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Nurture Green (LRV 40) reflects noticeably more light than Broccoflower (LRV 33), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Broccoflower runs neutral while Nurture Green is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 9.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
