## Colors that go with #da7afa

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 #da7afa 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
- **Emerald Green** #50c878 [harmony, pool: split] — Emerald Green is a split-complement of #da7afa: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement. Seen in: Obsidian (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/obsidian-md), Supabase (https://brandsweets.com/colors/brands/supabase). — https://brandsweets.com/colors/emerald-green
