- **Emerald Green** #50c878 [harmony, pool: complementary] — Emerald Green sits directly opposite #d27bef on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight. Seen in: Obsidian (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/obsidian-md), Supabase (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/supabase). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/emerald-green
- **Medium Sea Green** #3cb371 [harmony, pool: split] — Medium Sea Green is a split-complement of #d27bef: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
