Jolly Green vs Pickle

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Both sit in the green family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (30 vs 32), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. Jolly Green runs cool while Pickle is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 28.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
