Since brown is considered a neutral, there is no true compliment. Brown is made by mixing red, orange, or yellow pigment with either black or their respective complimentary colors. Therefore, taking into account the original base colors, and their respective compliments (red w/green, orange w/blue, yellow w/violet) we see that the common shade in the compliments are blue. Therefore, the practical (though not precise) compliment of brown would be blue.

Colours are very subjective, what one person think of as wonderful, someone else might find terrible, so ultimately use your own instincts to customise your look. That said, gold works well as an accent colour with any rich colour. Deep green, Maroon, Navy all look richer and more elegant with gold accents. If you are referring to a gold coloured wall paint then use deep green, dark blue, or bull's blood red as accent.
What color matches green on the color wheel?
You know that mixing blue and yellow will make green. Since all blues and yellows are not the same, I tend to use specific colors like cobalt blue and hansa yellow(closest to real yellow) to make the green and then more blue or more yellow to it to get the green I want. Using a cadmium yellow, which tends to have a small amount of red in it will result in a slightly darker, brownish green. I've only been in one rain forest and looking at the plants, many tended to be blue green while others were more yellow green. If you want to make your jungle interesting, you want to have a varieties of greens. Adding naphthol red (closest to real red) to the green mix will darken it. Adding more of the red will brown it up. The secret is to experiment with the colors you have on your palette and create the green that works with the rest of your painting. The more consistency of the base colors which produce the other colors int he painting, the better the painting will be.
