Benjamin Moore

Bed of Roses

1318

Bed of Roses is a mid-tone pink with red undertones that keep it saturated. Its LRV of 60.5 provides mid-level reflectance, so it reads clear on walls. Warm light brings the red note forward slightly.

It is suitable for bedrooms, accent walls, or studios where a strong pink is needed. Pair it with White Heron and Simply White for light balance, and add Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal for contrast.

Bed of Roses in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
