Jasper vs Wallflower

JasperSherwin-WilliamsvsWallflowerSherwin-WilliamsΔE 60.9Very different colors

Jasper and Wallflower come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Hue-wise, Jasper belongs to the green-grey family and Wallflower to the grey family. The 60-point LRV gap — 64 for Wallflower vs 4 for Jasper — means Wallflower will open up a space more effectively. Where Jasper leans neutral, Wallflower reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 60.9 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.
