What color is Benjamin Moore Exotic Bloom?
Benjamin Moore Exotic Bloom 551 is a light, leafy green with a noticeable yellow cast that keeps it from reading cool or minty. Its moderate brightness gives walls a fresh, open look without becoming overly pastel. In daylight, the green feels clearer and more garden-inspired, while warmer evening lighting can bring forward its soft yellow-green side. It suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, sunrooms, and children’s rooms, especially alongside warm white trim, pale wood, and natural woven textures. For contrast, pair Exotic Bloom with muted clay tones, deep olive accents, or charcoal hardware.

LRV of Exotic Bloom
Exotic Bloom has an LRV of 47.33% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 47.33%, 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.
