Gratitude vs Lily Pond
Both from PPG's palette. These are both greens, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (79 vs 78), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. At ΔE 0.9, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
