A pot I ordered for courtyard (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

patio

'courtyard' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a pot i ordered' is the wordplay.
'ordered' indicates an anagram.
'a'+'pot'+'i'='apoti'
'apoti' is an anagram of 'PATIO'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for patio that I've seen before include "Place to sit" , "area near house" , "Hard surface" , "Garden terrace" , "Paved area next to house" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
