A tree in hand (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

palm

I believe this is a double definition.

'a tree' is the first definition.
(I know that palm is a type of tree)

'in hand' is the second definition.
('palm' is part of 'hand')

(Other definitions for palm that I've seen before include "Flat part of the hand" , "Use hand" , "Evergreen tree and part of the hand" , "Symbol of victory" , "Queen; station" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
