What color is Behr Winter Shamrock?
Behr Winter Shamrock P400-5 is a clear medium green with a softened, lightly muted quality rather than an intense grassy brightness. Its #73bd83 color value suggests a gentle blue-green lean, giving the shade a cooler cast while retaining enough warmth to feel natural on broad walls. In direct daylight, Winter Shamrock can look fresher and more lively; lower or warmer indoor light may bring out its softer, leaf-like character. Use it in a kitchen, laundry room, bath, or sunlit bedroom with warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, and brushed brass. For contrast, pair this color with charcoal accents or deep navy textiles rather than another similarly mid-toned green.

LRV of Winter Shamrock
Winter Shamrock has an LRV of 35.43% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 35.43%, 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.
