A shade too fresh (5)
I believe the answer is:
green
This might be a double definition.
'a shade' is the first definition.
(I know that Green is a type of shade)
'too fresh' is the second definition.
'green' can be an answer for 'fresh' (I've seen this before). I'm not sure about the 'too' bit.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for green that I've seen before include "Flourishing" , "Environment-friendly" , "bowlers here?" , "raw, as > part of course" , "Ecologically correct" .)
