Benjamin Moore

Lily Pad

480

Lily Pad is a muted sage green with gray and yellow undertones that keep it from reading too bright or too cool. At an LRV of 50.58, it lands near the middle of the light-reflectance scale, balanced enough to work in rooms with moderate natural light. White Dove or Edgecomb Gray pair well as trim, maintaining the warm-neutral lean.

Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal offer clean, high-contrast accents. Pale Avocado and Fernwood Green build a layered green palette with tonal variation.
