A Green, Red - Violet and Red - Orange, split complementary color scheme allows you to introduce other colors whilst still retaining a high contrast scheme. This works well with floral fabrics, using them for drapery or upholstery.
Green, Violet and Orange, a triadic color scheme creates a wealthy and elegant use of green based on a strong chroma (brightness of the color) but if used with a tint (white added to a color) we get quite a different feel, mint green, lilac and apricot, this creates a harmonious and balanced use of the color.
Green, Yellow - Green and Yellow, an example of an analogous color scheme. This type of scheme is easy on the eye as it uses colors that are beside each other on the color wheel and therefore closely related. It is useful to use when you want to make a harmonious space but does create more movement than a simple monochromatic scheme. Refreshing comes to mind for this use of green.
