Named partners (harmony on the OKLCH wheel, co-occurrence in curated palettes and brand systems, and the neutrals that carry it), best first:

- **Lime Green** #32cd32 [harmony: complementary] — Lime Green sits directly opposite #da6eed on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight. — https://brandsweets.com/colors/limegreen
- **Light Sea Green** #20b2aa [harmony, pool: split] — Light Sea Green is a split-complement of #da6eed: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
