Benjamin Moore

May Flowers

1324

May Flowers (1324) is a light pink from the Benjamin Moore Classics collection with an LRV of 63.64. Its base sits in the red-pink range, carrying soft coral and peach undertones that prevent the color from reading as purely cool. The pink reads clean and saturated at medium depth without tipping into mauve territory.

It coordinates well within the Benjamin Moore line alongside White Zinfandel (880) for a tonal pink scheme, Mineral Alloy (1622) as a grounding neutral, Pale Oak (OC-20) for trim and ceilings, and French Press (AF-170) as a deep accent contrast.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
