What color is Behr Flowerpot?
Behr Flowerpot S180-3 is a light, muted peach-pink with a noticeable warm cast and a softly dusty finish. Its gentle red and beige influence keeps it from reading like a sugary pastel, giving walls a grounded blush rather than a bright pink statement. In direct daylight, Flowerpot can appear lighter and peachier, while evening light may draw out its warmer, clay-like side. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and dining spaces where a low-contrast wash of color feels more interesting than cream or beige. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, terracotta ceramics, or deeper brown accents for a cohesive palette.

LRV of Flowerpot
Flowerpot has an LRV of 49.19% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 49.19%, 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.
