Fuchsia #ff00ff
complementaryFuchsia sits directly opposite #16ac28 on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Medium Purple #9370db
split-complementshippedMedium Purple is a split-complement of #16ac28: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
Charcoal #36454f
