What the MongoDB Logo Colors Mean?
The MongoDB logo colors were chosen against a category. Databases had been blue for decades, Oracle red being the loud exception, and a green leaf reads as growth and as something living rather than as enterprise infrastructure. Two greens give the leaf a shaded side without a gradient. Watch the values if you are matching from an older asset: the pre-2023 palette used #13AA52 and #10AA50, and a generic #47A248 circulates on aggregator sites that MongoDB has never published.
MongoDB Logo Color History
MongoDB logo color history has one clear break, at the 2023 brand refresh, when the older mid greens were replaced by the much brighter Spring Green #00ED64 and the near-black Slate Blue #001E2B. The leaf shape survived. The bigger change of that era was not visual at all: in November 2018 the license moved from AGPL 3.0 to the SSPL.

Brand colors are chosen for recognition, not for legibility. A failing value here is normal. It means use it as a fill, not as text.
