Benjamin Moore

Budding Green

CSP-790

Budding Green is a light green with a balanced yellow and blue undertone. Its LRV of 59.65 puts it in the mid-light range, so it reads fresh without becoming pastel. It works in living rooms, kitchens, or bedrooms where a soft green is needed.

It pairs with Benjamin Moore White Dove and Classic Gray for neutral balance, and with Hale Navy or Charcoal Slate for contrast; Fernwood Green or Tarrytown Green can extend the green family.
