Willow Springs Green

418

Willow Springs Green (HC-series, Benjamin Moore) is a high-chroma yellow-green with strong yellow undertones that place it firmly in the lime-green range. It registers an LRV of 55.5, situating it at a medium reflectance level suitable for spaces receiving moderate natural light. The hue reads notably warm for a green due to its dominant yellow bias.

Effective same-brand pairings include Pale Avocado, Spring Meadow, Hale Navy, White Dove, and Simply White, which provide both tonal harmony and value contrast depending on the desired scheme.
