Farrow & Ball

Planter

No. G5

Planter is a warm mid-tone beige from Farrow & Ball with earthy yellow-brown undertones that keep it grounded without feeling heavy. Its hex value is #B5A086 and it has an LRV of 63.8, meaning it reflects a moderate amount of light and works well in living rooms, hallways, and bedrooms that receive varying levels of natural light. It sits comfortably alongside other warm neutrals such as White Tie, Oxford Stone, and Mouse's Back, and can be offset with cooler tones like Mizzle or Pigeon to prevent a scheme from reading too warm overall.
