Under warm 2700K interior light Green shifts subtly: leans toward yellow; in north-facing or shaded light it is virtually unchanged. Overall drift across common illuminants is small (max ΔE ≈ 1.4), so it is a lighting-stable choice.

That pairing passes WCAG AA for body text.
One color explored: close hues with real lightness and chroma structure, so the palette is the anchor through value rather than a set of colors.
#89d383 · #58ae53 · #008000 · #006100 · #003b00 · #001800
The anchor's neighbours on the wheel — everything shares an undertone, so the chord carries color without anything having to be muted to get along.
#00a387 · #00915b · #008000 · #476300 · #4a4b00 · #443700
The mid-gap pairing — sage and mustard, terracotta and olive. A foil rotated 40–65° toward warm or cool: too far to be kin, too near to argue, carried by temperature and a deliberate value offset.
#70d8d7 · #00bcbc · #369796 · #008000 · #005f00 · #004000
One deliberately opposed voice — a single restrained counterpoint across the wheel, or temperature against temperature where the anchor is too muted to carry a loud opposite.
#addda8 · #c468d1 · #008000 · #395237 · #043903 · #011a01
The anchor as the only color in the room. True neutrals or complement-warmed near-neutrals let it stay dominant.
#faedfc · #778975 · #008000 · #554c56 · #142612 · #020003
This color as a ground rather than a subject — its own restraint held across a narrow value band, carrying one saturated voice from the opposite temperature.
#f7eef8 · #cfc5d0 · #a397a4 · #2a1d2c · #080109 · #008000
The opposite hue on the perceptual wheel, tempered to field strength — warm/cool tension without vibration.
#fdebff · #aa63b4 · #008000 · #7a1c87 · #380040 · #000200
The complement's two neighbours instead of the complement itself — strong contrast with a lower clash risk.
#eacae5 · #d5a7bf · #928ed3 · #008000 · #455377 · #04130f
Three hues spaced evenly around the wheel; the anchor leads and the other two are held at supporting strength.
#ebf2ff · #5480d7 · #008000 · #99001d · #450007 · #000012
Two complementary pairs offset by 90° — the richest chord, kept usable by a strict lightness hierarchy.

#2F7C2B · #437740 · #537350
Its chroma is high enough to carry accents, calls to action, and focal moments; large fields of it will dominate a composition. In palettes it pairs most predictably with its tonal ramp and analogous neighbors; reserve the complementary hue for small, deliberate contrast.
