What Color Is Blooming Grove, Really?
Blooming Grove reads as a cool green tone — mid-tone — versatile but shifts visibly with light. The notes below cover how Benjamin Moore 413 behaves in different light and the closest matches at competing US brands.
Best Rooms and Uses for Blooming Grove
Blooming Grove is versatile enough for full rooms but has enough depth to anchor a space, so it suits living rooms, bedrooms and cabinetry alike. Greens bridge indoors and out, so they suit living rooms, kitchens and sunrooms.
How Lighting Changes Blooming Grove
Blooming Grove sits in the mid-range at LRV 42, so it shifts visibly through the day — lighter and more open in morning light, deeper and moodier after dark. Its green undertone is the part to watch: it gets picked up by whatever sits next to it, so test it against your trim, floor and the room's main light before committing. South-facing rooms will pull it lighter and warmer, while north light cools it down.
Most complaints about Blooming Grove are a light mismatch. Upload a photo of your actual room and see it on your walls — then ask for the same wall in north light or evening lamps before you buy a single sample.
