Defined by olive undertones, Watercress is a restful light, cool yellow. With an LRV of 77, it offers a serene backdrop for bedrooms, bathrooms, and reading nooks. For a cross-brand equivalent, Hirshfield's's Marrett Apple is a near-identical match. Benjamin Moore's Dried runs close as well. Balance its cool character with warm neutrals on adjacent surfaces, or embrace the chill with blue-gray accents.
