What color is Benjamin Moore Jungle Canopy?

Benjamin Moore Jungle Canopy CSP-900 is a deep, muted olive with a noticeable brown cast that keeps it grounded rather than overtly green. Its low-saturation character gives it an earthy, slightly weathered appearance, especially in rooms with limited daylight, where it can read close to dark khaki-brown. In brighter natural light, the olive undertone becomes clearer without turning sharp or grassy. Use Jungle Canopy on cabinetry, a study wall, or exterior trim when you want a substantial color with a natural feel. Pair it with warm off-whites, aged brass, medium wood tones, blackened metal, and stone or linen finishes for a layered, material-focused palette.

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 10.69%, 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.
