Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Forget-Me-Not reads as blue-purple, while Leapfrog reads as yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins.

Forget-Me-Not runs cool while Leapfrog is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 58.3, the contrast is hard to miss.

Digital color is approximate.

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