Benjamin Moore

Very Green

2040-30

Very Green (Benjamin Moore) is a saturated, cool-leaning green with a blue secondary undertone that gives it a teal-adjacent quality. Its LRV of 15.63 makes it a dark, low-reflectance color that will appear rich and concentrated, particularly on larger surfaces. The cool bias keeps it from reading as leafy or yellow-green, instead pulling it toward a deep mineral tone.

Compatible colors from Benjamin Moore include Simply White, White Dove, Wythe Blue, Palladian Blue, and Kendall Charcoal, which offer a range of contrast levels from soft neutrals to deep darks.
