Candy Green

403

Candy Green is a bright yellow-green with clear warm undertones. Its LRV of 61.63 places it in the light mid-tone range. It works in kitchens, playrooms, or accent areas where high chroma is acceptable.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace or Gentle Cream for light balance. Rainforest Dew, Spring Meadow, or Hale Navy provide related depth or contrast. In warmer light, the undertone stays present and the color can deepen slightly.
