What color is Behr Budding Leaf?
Behr Budding Leaf P360-1 is a very pale yellow-green with a soft, lightly creamy cast. Its high lightness keeps it close to an off-white, while the subtle green undertone gives it more character than a standard ivory. In north-facing rooms, Budding Leaf may read a little cooler and greener; warmer afternoon light tends to bring out its gentle yellow side. Use it on walls in kitchens, breakfast nooks, or bedrooms where a low-contrast color is wanted, pairing it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, and muted olive or clay accents.

LRV of Budding Leaf
Budding Leaf has an LRV of 84.32% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 84.32%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
