Valspar

Candied Lime

6002-4C

Candied Lime is a deep olive green with a yellow-brown base. It feels earthy, not candy bright. Doors, cabinetry, or an office accent handles it when green needs weight.

LRV 18 means it will not act like a fresh spring shade. Dark bronze and warm wood reinforce the olive. In low light, it may skew khaki rather than leafy.

Candied Lime in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

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.
