'a plant' is the definition.
(medick is a kind of plant)

'name after me' is the wordplay.
'name' becomes 'dick' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'after' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'dick' put after 'me' is 'MEDICK'.

'to' is the link.
