Benjamin Moore
New Lime
2025-30
New Lime by Benjamin Moore is a vivid yellow-green with strong warm undertones from its yellow component. It has an LRV of 60.26, meaning it reflects substantial light and can brighten rooms with limited natural daylight. This color works in kitchens, bathrooms, and as an accent wall where a bold, saturated statement is needed.
The yellow base keeps it from appearing too grassy, pushing it toward chartreuse. It pairs effectively with Benjamin Moore White Dove, Gray Owl, Calypso Blue, Grasshopper, and Soft Fern for arrangements ranging from high-contrast to closely related green tones.
