Things that are green and sharp

Green and sharp covers spiky plants, broken glass and sharp tastes: “sharp” can mean pointed or tart.

This pair comes from a past Overlaple puzzle: Thursday, 1 October 2026, where “Green” and “Sharp” met in one square. That page lists the best answers players gave.

Jev, the AI judge that scores Overlaple, says whether it fits both.
