The difference
Read from the numbersBoth read cool. Both belong to the green family.
How they read
In their own wordsCedar Grove is a mid-light sage — green enough to be clearly a color from across the room, grey enough never to look minty. At LRV 46 it sits in the sweet spot for a full-room green: it holds its tone in daylight and softens rather than muddies as the light fades.
Pleat is a deep, grey-softened teal from Little Greene — blue-green with enough grey to feel tailored rather than tropical. It is the color of a copper roof that has weathered for a century, and it is one of the best colors there is for tongue-and-groove panelling.
