I would stick with a neutral cream and use green in the curtains/blinds and other soft furnishings.

I assume that the leather is a dark evergreen??? If so, you can use a paint called "Newborn" from Glidden. It's yellowish gold and looks great with my green couch. Tan or taupe would look fine too, depending on if you want to lighten or darken the room. I think with dark green furniture, I would stick with the golden yellow and add accents for a burst of color: red, coral or burgandy.

Try the opposite color: reddish. A deep reddish color would work good.
Also try brown wall, beige trim, or beige walls and cream/offwhite trim.
what I recomend:Also there's a color that looks silvery-gray/brownish/greenish that would go wonderful with this. For the trim just do a very light shade of this color or do a darker color, maybe just a little bit darker but the same color but lighter shade of the green.
go with wood blinds and accent with plants.
To tone down all the green, do silver/gray pillows, brown pillows, and throws like these, too.

My first suggestion is to go to a near paint store and get some color pallettes, they are free. It sounds like the tone is dark, so I would stay little bit on the lighter side. I think creamy beige but not too yellow. What I also can suggest is probably the wall behind the couch go darker tone like a burnt red, or dark brown and the other walls stay little bit light but not too light. creamy beige will accommodate with these 2 tones.

You need to go for white, creams, beige, honeys and chocolate browns. They go stunningly with green and are very fashionable at the moment.

Depends on the rest of your decor,eg: color of carpets and curtains and also what shade of green your suite is.

A paler shade of green, cream, or if you are bold choose terra cotta, rust, or brick red.
