Benjamin Moore

Apple Green

2026-40

Apple Green is a bright yellow-green with a warm yellow undertone that keeps the hue from reading too sharp or cool. At an LRV of 65.51 it reflects a solid amount of light and can read stronger on south-facing walls. The yellow bias pairs well with Sunburst Yellow for a tonal scheme, while Soft Fern provides a quieter green nearby.

For contrast, Hale Navy or Rattan work on trim and accents. White Dove is a reliable ceiling and trim white to hold the palette together.
