What color is Benjamin Moore Stem Green?
Benjamin Moore Stem Green 2029-40 is a light, leafy yellow-green with a softened, slightly muted cast. Its clear chartreuse undertone gives it a sunny warmth, while the reduced saturation keeps it from feeling neon or overly sharp. In bright daylight, Stem Green can read fresh and crisp; under warmer evening bulbs, its yellow side becomes more noticeable. It suits kitchen walls, breakfast nooks, mudrooms, and painted cabinetry where a lively but not overpowering color is welcome. Pair it with creamy whites, light oak, woven natural fibers, or deep olive accents for contrast and definition.

LRV of Stem Green
Stem Green has an LRV of 50.83% 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 50.83%, 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.
