Benjamin Moore

Baby Fern

2029-20

Baby Fern is a medium green with a light yellow undertone that keeps it on the warm side. Its LRV of 25.28 places it in a mid-dark range, so it benefits from adequate lighting. The yellow note reads stronger under warm lamps.

It is suitable for kitchens, mudrooms, or accent walls where a natural green is desired. Pair it with Pale Avocado and Cedar Green for adjacent greens, and use Simply White or Nightwatch for contrast.
