What color is Behr Royal Orchard?
Behr Royal Orchard PPU11-01 is a muted, medium-depth green with a gray-olive cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its softened saturation gives walls a quiet, earthy presence, especially in offices, bedrooms, or dining rooms with natural wood furniture. In warm artificial light, Royal Orchard can read a little more olive and brown-leaning, while cooler daylight brings out its subdued green-gray side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, weathered oak, black metal, or warm stone for a layered, natural-looking palette. It also has enough depth for cabinetry or an exterior front door when a restrained green is wanted.

LRV of Royal Orchard
Royal Orchard has an LRV of 13.59% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 13.59%, 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.
