I know, that's the green colour used in Mint-Y, the gtk-(beta) theme in
LinuxMint.

Synaptic is one of the gtk3 applications giving more aesthetic problems
at every turn. For example, the toolbar has a handle on the left side
(like the toolbar of the gtk2 example in lxappearance:
http://gnuinos.org/2017-02-22--1487776608_178x159_scrot.png) , but it's
missing in the most of the gtk themes.
