Among the matted reeds I have a home (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reside

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'have a home' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'among the matted reeds i' is the wordplay.
'reeds i' can be anagrammed to 'RESIDE'.
But, I am not sure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for reside that I've seen before include "Dwell in desire" , "Live (in a place)" , "Make one's home permanently" , "Dwell, be present (in)" , "Inhabit" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
