What color is Behr Wishful Green?
Behr Wishful Green M410-2 is a pale, lightly muted green with a soft mint cast and a clean, airy appearance. Its high lightness keeps it from feeling heavy, while the gentle green presence is noticeable enough to give white trim a subtle contrast. In bright daylight, Wishful Green can read fresh and lightly pastel; lower or warmer lighting may bring out its softer, more subdued side. It suits bedroom, bathroom, nursery, or laundry room walls where a quiet wash of color is wanted. Pair it with warm white, pale natural wood, woven textures, and brushed nickel or matte black hardware for a simple, grounded finish.

LRV of Wishful Green
Wishful Green has an LRV of 68.34% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 68.34%, 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.
