Benjamin Moore

Tropical Fruit

CSP-1115

Tropical Fruit (BM) is a warm, mid-toned red-orange with a noticeable orange undertone that shifts its appearance away from a pure red. At an LRV of 30.6, it absorbs a moderate amount of light, placing it in the medium-depth range and making it a strong candidate for accent applications. The orange lean gives it a sun-baked, earthy quality that distinguishes it from cooler reds.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore's Evening Dove, White Dove, Simply White, Coral Reef, and Autumn Cover, offering options that range from deep neutral contrast to warm tonal continuity.

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.
