What color is Behr Sweet Grass?
Behr Sweet Grass M350-4 is a muted yellow-green with a soft, earthy cast that sits comfortably between olive and dried sage. Its medium-light depth gives walls noticeable color without making a room feel closed in. In daylight, the green undertone is more apparent, while warm evening bulbs can bring forward its khaki and golden notes. Sweet Grass suits kitchens, mudrooms, breakfast nooks, and bedrooms where natural wood, woven fibers, or aged brass are part of the palette. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm taupe, charcoal accents, or deep forest green for contrast.

LRV of Sweet Grass
Sweet Grass has an LRV of 43.38% 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 43.38%, 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.
