I looked it up and its called waterfall green. The pics on the web don't really do it justice. Yeah I think you can add pearl to any colour.

But it's very hard to match if you need work done later. i'm asking because i genuinely don't know - but could you not ask the paintshop to make up a few extra litres? obviously it'd need paying for, but you'd at least have paint from the same batch your car was done in? i don't even know if that's possible though, so maybe ignore me.....
