I spent a whole afternoon last fall staring at paint chips against my own siding and realized greens never look the same once the sun moves.
The way a shade sits next to roof shingles or landscaping can either soften the whole house or make it feel out of place by midday.
Testing a few quarts on the actual exterior walls is the only way to see how they shift through the seasons.
Some greens hold their depth even under overcast skies while others wash out next to brick or stone.
I always check how the color reads at dusk before committing to the full project.
