It's called a pimento. The pimento is a pepper similar to the bell pepper. It has a mild flavor and is the main ingredient in pimento cheese. These are stuffed olives, by the way, and do not occur like this naturally.

It's a pimento, a type of red pepper. It isn't a natural part of the olive... it's put there as a flavor enhancer, to counter the natural bitter taste of a freshly-picked olive.

What colors can you add to lime green to make olive green?

You need a cool blue such as prussian blue or or a lighter cool blue such as cerulean blue depending on the type of olive green you wish to make. Basically blue and yellow make green so if you add a colour from the yellow part of the spectrum you will get some form of green. Try a light orange or a hot yellow to give an olive green. Experiment with different combinations of blue and yellow. If you have already made a basic green with blue and yellow but it is not murky enough to be olive then try adding a little red to it (choose an orangey red not a purpley red).

What colors match with olive green?

Olive green is a tricky color because there are so many shades of Olive green, from light olive to loden. If the olive you are trying to use is a dark olive, treat it as a brown. Usually any colors that go with brown will also go with a dark olive. The lighter olives present more of a problem but you can get around this by realizing that olive green is a mixture of yellow and black. Black is a good accent for a light olive, you can also get away with some shades of navy. Yellow is also a good color selection. On a dark olive, red makes a good accent color. Your best bet is to hold the color you're thinking of using next to the olive, to see how they react to each other.
