About Grenada Green

Grenada Green (432) is a deep, medium-strength green from Benjamin Moore that leans yellow. With an LRV of 39, Grenada Green absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.

In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Grenada Green's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, offices, kitchen islands and cabinets and accent walls. Next to Kiwi (544), it's cooler and more muted.

How Grenada Green changes with the light

Grenada Green has a strong warm undertone that balances cool north light well. In strong south or west sun it can look more golden, so check a sample at midday and in the late afternoon.

S

South-facing rooms

In strong south light Grenada Green can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.

W

West-facing rooms

Grenada Green will glow warmer in the late afternoon, so check it at sunset if you want to avoid a strong yellow cast.
