Benjamin Moore

Fennel Seed

1101

Fennel Seed is a light mid-tone with warm yellow, orange, and beige undertones that give it an earthy, organic character. Its LRV of 57.54 places it in the moderate reflectance range, suitable for rooms needing warmth without excessive brightness. The blend of orange and yellow keeps it from reading as a flat tan, adding noticeable depth to walls.

It is compatible with farmhouse, traditional, and contemporary interiors. Strong Benjamin Moore pairings include White Dove, Simply White, Golden Straw, Weston Flax, and Hale Navy.
