Teal might very well go, I could be wrong, because you were on the right track with the green (in the teal) implementation. I ran some brushes on many variations of teal and i think this still throws off the colours.

Here's some hex values you may want to try and experiment with. #779B59 #99B483 #BCCEAD #65844C #597443 #3C4E2D
