Benjamin Moore

Bud Green

2033-50

Bud Green is a light mint green with cool undertones. The LRV of 64.43 makes it bright and reflective, so it reads clean in most rooms. It can be used in kitchens, bathrooms, or play spaces where a light green is needed.

It pairs with Benjamin Moore Ice Mist and Chantilly Lace for a crisp range, and with Hale Navy or Black Forest Green for contrast; Stonington Gray or Nimbus can keep the palette neutral.
