What color is Benjamin Moore Fernwood Green?
Benjamin Moore Fernwood Green 2145-40 is a light, muted yellow-green with a softened olive cast and a noticeably creamy, gray-toned finish. Its low saturation keeps it from reading bright or grassy, giving walls a gentle khaki-green presence instead. In warm daylight, the yellow undertone may come forward, while cooler or shaded light can make this shade appear more subdued and gray-green. It suits kitchens, mudrooms, bedrooms, and quiet living areas, especially alongside warm white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, and aged brass. Use Fernwood Green on full walls or cabinetry when you want color that remains pale and grounded rather than crisp or high-contrast.

LRV of Fernwood Green
Fernwood Green has an LRV of 56.76% 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 56.76%, 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.
