What color is Behr Green Parakeet?
Behr Green Parakeet P430-3 is a light, clear green with a noticeable blue-aqua cast that keeps it feeling fresh rather than earthy. Its medium brightness gives it enough color for a full wall, especially in bathrooms, sunrooms, laundry rooms, or a bright kitchen. In strong daylight, Green Parakeet can read crisper and more turquoise-leaning, while lower light may soften its green presence. Pair it with clean white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or soft sandy neutrals to ground its cool clarity. For a more graphic look, use this shade on cabinetry or an accent wall alongside charcoal, deep navy, or matte black hardware.

LRV of Green Parakeet
Green Parakeet has an LRV of 47.72% 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 47.72%, 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.
