Given the choice between green and brown, I went for green. However, I think that khaki is definitely the best description for it.

It is *definitely* green at home and *definitely* brown in the department.

I think it's definitely monitor affected.

On my screen it's a milk-chocolate kind of brown, much too dark to be even considered a khaki, and nary a hint of green.
