Benjamin Moore

Spring Leaf

2030-40

Spring Leaf is a bright, medium-saturation green with a pronounced yellow cast that shifts it toward chartreuse territory. At an LRV of 54.73, it occupies the mid-tone range and reads as an active, warm green on the wall. The yellow undertone intensifies under incandescent lighting, while daylight brings out more of the true green.

It works alongside Benjamin Moore Pale Avocado and Soft Fern for an analogous green scheme, and pairs with Stone Harbor as a warm neutral counterpart. Simply White provides a clean, high-contrast trim option.

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.
