What color is Benjamin Moore Rosemary Sprig?

Benjamin Moore Rosemary Sprig 2144-30 is a muted olive green with a noticeable yellow-gray cast that keeps it earthy rather than bright. Its mid-tone depth gives walls enough presence without making a room feel dark, especially when paired with crisp off-white trim. In cool daylight, Rosemary Sprig can read as a softened gray-green, while warmer bulbs bring forward its mossy, khaki-like side. It suits kitchens, mudrooms, studies, and built-in cabinetry where a grounded color can define the space. Pair it with warm white, charcoal, natural oak, aged brass, and linen textiles for a layered, practical interior palette.

What are Benjamin Moore Rosemary Sprig undertones?

Rosemary Sprig is a mid-light, muted green with a noticeable yellow cast, giving it an olive-leaning overall character rather than a cool blue-green look. The supplied digital color sample reads soft and moderately low in saturation, so it is less vivid than a fresh grass green. Benjamin Moore describes it as a “warm green,” which fits the visible yellow bias within its main green family. Warm artificial light may bring forward its yellow-olive side, while cool daylight can make the green aspect appear a little clearer.

LRV of Rosemary Sprig

Rosemary Sprig has an LRV of 34.83% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?

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 34.83%, 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.
