What color is Benjamin Moore Gumdrop?
Benjamin Moore Gumdrop 564 is a soft, mid-light green with a gently muted look rather than a sharp or highly saturated presence. Its color value suggests a balanced green that can appear fresh in bright daylight and a little more subdued under lower or warmer interior lighting. It makes a natural fit for bedroom walls, a laundry room, or a sunlit kitchen where a calm wash of color is wanted without going too dark. Pair Gumdrop with warm white trim, light oak, woven natural fibers, or matte black hardware for definition. It can also bring a quiet green note to cabinetry or a painted interior door.

LRV of Gumdrop
Gumdrop has an LRV of 42.11% 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 42.11%, 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.
