Any tree or shrub of the genus Acer (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

maple

(Other definitions for maple that I've seen before include "Tree; sauce" , "Tree; sugar from it" , "Canadian national tree" , "Tree whose leaf features on the flag of Canada" , "Tree of the sycamore family" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
