Easy Green vs Nurture Green
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. Easy Green (LRV 50) reflects noticeably more light than Nurture Green (LRV 40), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 7.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Easy Green vs Nurture Green in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Easy Green and Nurture Green are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Easy Green will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Nurture Green would.
Front Door
A front door is a focal point — small color differences read clearly at this concentrated scale. The LRV gap is large enough that Easy Green will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Nurture Green would.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
