I'd hue shift pretty much everything! The technique works on everything from sprites to tiles, though with some things it's best to practice a bit of moderation.
The only problem is, like I said earlier, a lot of the graphics here are not pixel art. If I look at just your treetops alone, I can count about 90 unique colors. And when you have this many colors, you cannot do things like hue shifting. So that's why when you're working with pixel art it's best to use as few colors as possible. Take the famous Secret of Mana 3 tree, for example, which only uses about 8 unique colors for it's treetops:

It's also another good example of hue shifting, doing a ramp from blue to green to yellow.
