What color is Sherwin Williams Houseplant?

Sherwin Williams Houseplant SW 6727 is a muted, mid-depth green with a noticeable olive cast and an earthy yellow undertone. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading like a sharp botanical green, giving the color a grounded, slightly weathered appearance. In bright natural light, Houseplant can appear more yellow-green, while lower or cooler light brings out its deeper, mossy side. It has enough depth for dining room walls, a study, or painted cabinetry, especially when paired with warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, and tan leather. For contrast, use it alongside chalky creams, terracotta accents, or deep charcoal details.

LRV of Houseplant

Houseplant has an LRV of 14.3% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 14.3%, 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.
