Crossword Genius

Form of green composition (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

genre

'form' is the definition.
(genre is a kind of form)

'green composition' is the wordplay.
'composition' indicates an anagram.
'green' is an anagram of 'GENRE'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for genre that I've seen before include "Green (anag)" , "Style of work" , "Style/category of art" , "Brand" , "Literary type, species" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
