What color is Benjamin Moore Citrus Green?

Benjamin Moore Citrus Green 2032-40 is a lively mid-tone green with a clear yellow-green cast and enough brightness to read as fresh rather than heavy. Its clean, leafy character is especially noticeable in daylight, while warmer bulbs can bring its yellow undertone forward. Use it on a kitchen island, breakfast nook wall, or painted built-ins where a crisp hit of color feels appropriate. Citrus Green pairs well with soft white trim, pale natural oak, woven cane, and matte black hardware for contrast. For a quieter scheme, ground this shade with muted clay tones or deeper forest greens.

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 52.21%, 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.
