#87b364rgb(135, 179, 100)hsl(93, 34%, 55%)oklch(0.716 0.117 132.5)Broccoli on this page is the real value, not a screenshot: exact hex, RGB, HSL and OKLCH, ten tints and ten shades, classic harmonies, and WCAG contrast with fixes — plus the curated palettes it appears in and any public brand that adopts it.
Charcoal, Lilac and Champagne lead the list. Each partner is a real named colour with the reason it works — a wheel relationship, a neutral that carries it, or a pairing lifted from a palette or brand system that actually shipped — and every pair opens in the palette tool.
Charcoal is the body-text near-black for Broccoli: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy.
Lilac sits directly opposite Broccoli on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Champagne is paired with Broccoli in 4 real palettes, including Forest Floor and Midnight Luxe, as the text colour against it — a combination designers have actually shipped, not a computed rotation.
Copper is paired with Broccoli in 5 real palettes, including Bramble and Bakery, as the supporting colour — a combination designers have actually shipped, not a computed rotation.
Dark Olive Green is paired with Broccoli in 4 real palettes, including Undergrowth and Forest Floor, as the supporting colour — a combination designers have actually shipped, not a computed rotation.
Hunter Green is paired with Broccoli in 6 real palettes, including Pine & Birch and Darkroom, as the lead colour — a combination designers have actually shipped, not a computed rotation.
Royal Blue is paired with Broccoli in 4 real palettes, including Docker's brand system and Guinness's brand system, as the supporting colour — a combination designers have actually shipped, not a computed rotation.
Slate Gray is paired with Broccoli in 6 real palettes, including Indigo SaaS and Midnight Luxe, as the supporting colour — a combination designers have actually shipped, not a computed rotation.
| Broccoli as text | Ratio | AA | AA large | AAA | Fix |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Aaon white | 2.42:1 | fail | fail | fail | |
Aaon black | 8.66:1 | pass | pass | pass | Passes AAA — no fix needed. |
Fixes keep hue and saturation and move lightness only, so the suggestion stays on-brand. Ratios are symmetric: the same numbers apply with Broccoli as the background.
