'grass seen around boggy stuff on a regular basis' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'grass seen around boggy stuff' is the wordplay.
'grass' becomes 'reed' (type of grass plant).
'seen around' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'boggy stuff' becomes 'peat' (I've seen this in another clue).
'reed' placed around 'peat' is 'REPEATED'.
