What color is Benjamin Moore Budding Green?
Benjamin Moore Budding Green CSP-790 is a light, softened green with a noticeable gray cast and a gentle yellow-green undertone. Its low saturation keeps it from reading bright or leafy, giving walls a quiet, powdery look instead. In daylight, Budding Green can appear slightly fresher and greener, while warm artificial light may bring forward its muted olive warmth. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchens where a pale green can add color without overwhelming the room. Pair it with creamy whites, weathered oak, limestone, brushed brass, or charcoal accents for contrast. This shade is especially effective across full walls or on painted cabinetry when the surrounding finishes are natural and understated.

LRV of Budding Green
Budding Green has an LRV of 59.65% 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 59.65%, 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.
