What color is Behr Vine Leaf?

Behr Vine Leaf N400-7 is a deep, muted green with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its low-saturation character gives walls a substantial, earthy look, especially in rooms with natural wood, stone, or aged brass details. In strong daylight, Vine Leaf can read as a softened forest green, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its charcoal-like depth. It suits a library, dining room, entry, or exterior trim where a darker color can add definition without looking black. Pair it with warm off-whites, mushroom taupes, weathered oak, and matte black accents for a layered, natural palette.

LRV of Vine Leaf

Vine Leaf has an LRV of 9.92% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 9.92%, 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.
