The orange and the green are very hard (even not possible) to
harmonize. In your place, I would tone down the colors significantly,
especially the green, and make it perhaps more pastel.

It might be that you misjudge the colors because of your LCD monitor,
which are very bad (at least the cheap ones) when it comes to color
rendition, because of this poor feature most graphic agencies wont use
them at all.
