What color is Benjamin Moore Tree Moss?

Benjamin Moore Tree Moss 508 is a muted light olive-gray with a soft yellow-green cast and a gently weathered appearance. Its low saturation keeps it quiet on the wall, reading more neutral in cool daylight while warmer bulbs bring out its subtle mossy undertone. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and kitchens where a grounded alternative to beige or standard gray is wanted. Pair Tree Moss with creamy off-whites, warm wood, aged brass, charcoal, or clay-toned textiles for a layered, natural-looking palette. On cabinetry, it can create a restrained earthy accent against pale walls and stone counters.

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 46.81%, 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.
