Farrow & Ball

Hog Plum

No. CB1

Hog Plum by Farrow & Ball is a light yellow-green with a distinctly warm, citrus-leaning tone at #E0E39A. Its green undertones keep it from reading as a straight yellow, pushing it toward a chartreuse territory that feels fresh rather than heavy. The LRV of 86.7 makes it a high-reflectance option, useful in kitchens, garden rooms, or any space that benefits from brightness with some color presence.

It coordinates naturally with White Tie, Pointing, Green Smoke, Oval Room Blue, and Pale Powder.
