Undertone: Saturated green (a color, not a neutral)
In CIELAB, Eucalyptus sits at L* 71.4, a* -24.3, b* 4.4. Its hue angle is 170° and its chroma is 24.7, so it reads as an outright green rather than a neutral. It classifies as neutral-warm. Among Benjamin Moore colors with a similar LRV (±5), it is warmer (more yellow) than 31%.
LRV 42.9: mid-tone
Light Reflectance Value runs from 0 (absolute black) to 100 (perfect white). At 42.9, Eucalyptus is lighter than 47% of Benjamin Moore colors. Reads clearly as a color. Best in rooms with good natural light, or as an accent wall; small dark rooms may feel smaller.
