Place for putting vegetable — Chartreuse? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

green

I believe this clue is a triple definition!

'place for putting' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'vegetable' is the second definition.
(green is a kind of vegetable)

'chartreuse?' is the third definition.
(chartreuse is a kind of green)

(Other definitions for green that I've seen before include "Verdant; naive" , "Immature" , "Common, inexperienced" , "Permission to proceed" , "The colour of envy" .)
