What color is Sherwin Williams Rock Garden?
Sherwin Williams Rock Garden SW 6195 is a deep, muted green with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its low saturation gives walls a softened, natural look, while the dark value adds definition to a room. In brighter daylight, Rock Garden can read as a reserved leafy green; under warm lamps, its charcoal-like depth becomes more apparent. It makes a strong choice for cabinetry, a study, a dining room, or an exterior door where a darker color can provide contrast without looking black. Pair it with warm white trim, aged brass, weathered wood, stone, and tan or oatmeal textiles for a layered palette.

LRV of Rock Garden
Rock Garden has an LRV of 8.09% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 8.09%, 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.
