Adds colour naturally (5,9)

has to have green in it somewhere so could be green ... or green could be part of second word

There is a shrub called dyers greenweed.. the flowers of which are used as a natural dye.And to dye something would be to add colour.Just a thought !

Not sure where he got it from but will be interested to see how they could argue with it - watch this spade

It actually dyes yellow when used and it's Latin name is
Genista tinctoreas .
