What color is Benjamin Moore Pear Green?
Benjamin Moore Pear Green 2028-40 is a light, yellow-leaning green with a clear, fresh presence. Its #C3D16F color value gives it a sunny chartreuse cast rather than a muted sage or earthy olive look. On walls, Pear Green can bring noticeable color to a breakfast nook, children’s room, or laundry area without reading overly dark. Pair it with warm white trim, pale natural wood, woven textures, or soft blue accents to emphasize its yellow-green character. In brighter daylight, this shade is likely to appear crisper and more luminous, while lower light can make its green tone feel a little gentler.

LRV of Pear Green
Pear Green has an LRV of 57.36% 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 57.36%, 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.
