The bees find it in flower (6)
I believe the answer is:
pollen
'the bees find' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot understand how they can define each other.
'it in flower' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'it' could be 'e' ('e' can mean 'electronic' which is similar to 'IT') and 'e' is found in the answer.
'flower' could be 'po' (Italian river) and 'po' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pollen that I've seen before include "Flower powder" , "Fine powder discharged from a plant" , "Frequent cause of allergies" , "Powdery stuff produced by plants" , "Powdery substance given off by flowers" .)
