I just updated this morning my Python from a 3.3rc to 3.4

'Green' in 3.4 is very dark. I had to replace it with 'Lime' to
get back a nice 'Green'.
More likely the color is defined by tcl/tk rather than Python, and your
Python installations use different versions of tcl.

3.4 switched from 8.5 to 8.6
and according to
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X11_color_names#Clashes_between_web_and_X11_colors>
"green" is indeed one of the affected colors.
