Garden Grove vs Java
Garden Grove (Sherwin-Williams) and Java (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Garden Grove belongs to the green family and Java to the grey family. The 3-point LRV gap — 18 for Garden Grove vs 15 for Java — means Garden Grove will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 13.3 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
